'flatulent' footwear

Thanks to fark for supplying this story, in the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. Basically, the shoes make flanky sounds. (Yeah, that was my childhood version of the 'F' word. Still can't say that word.)

Anyhow, the sad thing is that there are people in this world without shoes, but this company is forced (economically) to toss out 35,000 shoes -- just because they make flanky sounds when you walk.

Sad. I could use a pair of flanky shoes.
