SMITH Some people always want to plug their favorite product. Our editor is such a person. He tried these Hercules Uvex 691 goggles from Hercules Distributing, 9827 Mason Ave., ChHsworth, Calif. 91311 and was so stoked that he told our New Stuff and Things Editor to do a piece on them. The NS&T guy doesn't like to do things like goggles, helmets, belt buckles, seat covers, etc.~ but he was ordered to do it, and so it appeared herein to avoid cruel and unusual punishment. They are probably pretty good goggles anyway. They keep the editor's eyes clean. If you think that the editor acted unfairly you can write the assistant editor and demand to have the old coot bawled out.
