One Cold Hand

CNN.com usually brings me very top line stuff with the end result of confirming how strange America can be. Once in a while it does throw up an interesting and quirky story such as this one - a girl from Carnegie Mellon University started a website for lost gloves. Her aim was to reunite these lost gloves with their "lost" owners...



"onecoldhand.com is a project that connects the Pittsburgh community through one unfortunate event - the loss of a glove. The website creates a method for dealing with the conundrum of finding these lost articles. Do you leave it and hope the owner comes back to find it? Do you pick it up? Throw it away? With onecoldhand.com, the abandoned object now becomes a symbol of benevolence and hope."-----Jennifer Gooch

Quirky as the story may be, what is the end result?
