For those of you following the story, one of the feet that washed up in B.C. has been identified. Story [here](http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2008061457_apcanadamysteryfeet1stldwritethru.html?syndication=rss) . ---

My conclusion, based only on 2 facts: they were all wearing tightly race running shoes, and the identified man was depressed-is they all belonged to members of a Heaven’s Gate-like suicide cult. I’d also like to point out that I thought this thread was about the feet of the characters in the comic “B.C.”, which for some reason, for some people, news of which was interesting enough for a follow up. ---

I conclude that the mobster’s use of concrete shoes seems to be better than Nikes if you don’t want parts to go on walkabout. None of the shoes have been sailing shoes. No secret agent shoes either, but that may be because of the end of the Cold War.
