What's to elaborate? I filled out the form and the next day I was contacted by a service I had saying that my information was being used in 2 states I have never been. Like I said, not sure if it was this website or not but it was what I did right before so I thought I might throw that info out there to people.

I've been in multiple plants with the same restrictions on tinted or mirrored safety glasses indoors. I'm pretty sure the idea came from a National Safety Council memo awhile back about factory light levels and slip/trips/& falls, as a number of falls were attributed to them.

We are not getting anything. IMO. Uvex is using the form as a money making list. They are probably going to sell the list with all the personal information to the highest bidder.

Or it's a mass conspiracy to transmit a computer virus to everyone that signs up. Not that I'm paranoid or anything.

Tried to order them and the stupid thing keeps telling me to add a valid phone number. I did (against my better judgement), and it keeps telling me to do it. I guess I have been invalidated... <sigh>

To bad anyway. I like the smoke tinted glasses. We always only had either black outs or clear. I was looking forward to trying the smoke tint.

I got mine last week, and I am actually pretty happy with them. Seem to be of decent quality, lightweight, good ocular clarity, so far so good. They sit differently than my other everyday glasses and took a few days to get used to, but overall, I give them about an 8/10. Wish I could have gotten amber ones. I use amber almost daily.

Honeywell called me today to make sure I really wanted the glasses. They're shipping them out and plan on calling me in a few weeks to see how I like them.

Mine never showed up, so if they show up now, at least my Dad will get a shiny new pair of safety glasses.
