yeah, I have. I've worn glowstick glasses, but never once have I been in a dark room and thought "you know what I need? less visibility!"

Here's an idea: let's all write off an entire company based on the color of one pair of sunglasses that they made for fun! Oh, wait...

not so much, they had their sulfur frame on the frogskins which is a bright neon green that appears to glow in the dark. It is being used again on the deuce coupe series of holbrooks and frogs.
