Could anybody spare me a pair of size 7 (7 inch) Nomex military flight gloves (used or otherwise). Where I come from they're difficult to procure. I won't promise anything in return, but for you good Samaritans out there, thanks in advance.

Norbert, I just happened to look and see where you were writing from, Papua New Guinea, wow no wonder your looking for someone to spare a pair of Nomex gloves. I'm into georgraphy and was just wondering how did you end up in New Guinea, thats pretty cool. What do you do there? I might be able to find a pair. You said size 7 and here our size 5 is supposed to be like extra large, military size I mean. Semper Fi, Terry

In response to the USA not being the only country in the world. Thanks to our politicians I.E. Bill Clinton (NAFTA) and whoever else is responsible for a 400 billion dollar trade deficient... Which Means that 400 billion dollars per year is leaving the United States Economy. NAFTA has put us on a playing field for a "world economy" .... which will give way to an "equal standard of living world wide" (who has the most to lose here?). Once all the cash has left on a boat for some third world country and we have no more cash and/or jobs ... Our standard of living on a par with some third world nation that sent all the goods to wal-mart. He will be able to buy his own gloves.

Hey guys, dont be so rude. I'm searching for a good outfit in my country for a couple of years with no end. Plainly there is NO good outfit here. And asking with no refund: Just imagine that everything you buy costs ten times more. And now imagine that YOU have no other option... For egzample in my country for 1,000,000 roubles you can buy only small box of normal (not military) matches and in neighbouring country (Belorussia) for that sum he can buy a cow...

So if he sells a cow and goes to my country he gets matches for his cow...

So is with gloves... he sells his house and buys gloves? So he asks YOU to send him gloves, that cost you almost nothing and him - a fortune. BE MORE TOLERANT FOR OTHER PEOPLE IN THE OUTER WORLD: USA IS NOT THE ONLY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!

Repeat after me jack-ass www.rangerjoes.com Why would I or for that matter anyone send you a set of gloves that would cost more to send than for you to buy new ones? Brain cells must be optional in your part of the world.

Jesus. What's this world coming to? For Pete's sake, Is there no dignity? Hey jerky, ask your mother if she'd mind letting me practice making babys with her for free. You should have my call sign ya damn freeloader.
