The dropped glove was in the past a romantic symbol. A woman dropped a glove, a man found it and sought her. How different this glove and others like it, designed to assist in avoiding pollution, but so often themselves becoming pollutive rubbish.
it's an epidemic! I was at the dentist yesterday, feeling nostalgic for the old days when they didnt have to glove up before they put their fingers in your mouth. In order for laytex gloves, and their monodigital relatives, condoms, to be effective, they must resist breaking down in the elements and moisture. We may be seeing more of these, the way we used to see old newspapers in the days before our current Orwellian level of illiteracy and complacence. We are the dead.
