One Cold Hand? is “a site for the collection and hopeful reunion of Pittburgh’s dropped gloves.” Maybe this idea will spread to other cities, although Miami would probably pass. Link -via Fark

Now I shall comment...
Cute idea with the One Cold Hand...I think a "One Cold Foot" should be next, with lone socks. Although most socks look the same. My dad calls lone socks "orphans"...although I suppose they're missing a sibling/spouse, not a parent?
I've always wanted to run a singles bar for Lost Socks. I'd called it Tootsies. You'd arrive with a sock and work your way through a decision tree (with possibly a drink at each table); plain/patterned, stripes/spots/pictures etc until you arrived at a table with socks of your sort.
BOO! I always keep the gloves, hats, scarves, and other cold weather gear I find frozen to the macadam in the parking lot. If people are going to be returning them to their rightful owners, I won't be able to grow my collection. Boycott One Cold Hand!!!!!
Check out this site on lost and abandoned shoes from all over the states photographed by a young couple cruising the US in their motor home, even has them all mapped on google earth. Wait a minute, that guy is me :) :) :)

He told me that he wished he knew someone who only had a left hand so that he could trade unused gloves.
