    Yup, that's what I have heard.. I've been looking into it myself. Two things keep coming up, halo's around lights at night and you get what you pay for.... So don't go to the place that has the buy one eye get one free deal.

    nope. wankel rotorz 13b.


    but on the real echonova, i feel you with that statement! most people take that shit for granted, being able to see a pair of sunglasses and be like:

    "hmm, i like those" try them on

    and mean while folks with prescription glasses are like
    "hmm i like those glasses" ~slides prescriptions off, hold them with the pinky finger, while reaching for the sunglasses, get poked in the eye by your prescrip glasses arm,~ followed by "i can either look good, or i can see good...hmm"

    My dad got it a year or so ago. When I'm home I never hear any complaints, he is really happy with it.

    Nah, however my eyes are extremely sensitive to light. You will never see without SG's unless the streetlights are on.

    Edit: Wow, we got OT.

    yeah, i'm photosensitive also, which is why i got my glasses tinted. funny enough, when i played football minus glasse or contacts i was still good enough to differentiate players with the ball from those without, just didnt have the proper depth perception so i'd plow into peoples full steam!!!

    i'd never slow down for the person i was gonna hit. regardless of how close they were!
