I am looking for a few pairs of broken sunglasses- or goggles :)

Whyyyyy?? WELL, I am a science teacher and I am working on some lessons for next year. In this particular lesson, students will measure how much UV is filtered out by different styles (and priced) sunglasses. I am curious to see if the $200 pair really does filter out more UV than the $4 pair. Now, all we need is that $200 pair glasses..... SO, if you have any old, broken, slight suffed, dinged, no longer in style, whatever, sunglasses or goggles (swim, snow, etc.) that you would like to donate to your local science foundation, that would be GREAT.

In all seriousness, I just need to lenses, so if you are still using the frames, you can keep those. I won't be giving them back- but you can rest assured that hundred of low income kids wil oooh and aaah while the test the UV filtering.

Thanks, I really do appreciate it. Email me if you have any questions.

Tom, Stephanie has a bad shoulder these days. So she won't be going to MG tomorrow, unless she just comes to hang out. I am going and can pass the goggles along to her if you want.

You guys are AWESOME!! THANKS! I am not going to be doing the lesson for a while, but I want to start gathering supplies now. I REALLY appreciate it.

Tom, I will be running Wednesday, but if you give them to Jessica or Ben, I am sure I will see them soon. It will probably be another month before I see you guys on the rocks :(
