Hello Larry, and all other interested parties.....

You're ignoring the most obvious factor of all: cork pads are an amazing
by-product of drinking good wine. Take the wine cork, sand it down, and glue
it in. No charge, and you get to drink the wine as well. A big savings over
those pesky skin pads, and a lot more fun. What a bargain. Lee Callet
