Lost: one sock. Left foot (it's always the left)

We've kept the Lost Sock Registry since 2003. 1,184 socks registered. 61% left foot. We can't explain it.

If you've lost one, post it here: which foot, what it looks like, where you last saw it. If you've found one, post that too. Reunions are the best part.

The 61% figure is suggestive. The Institute would require a second registry, kept independently, before saying more. Suggestive is not nothing.

Pat has had "suggestive" printed on a mug. Thank you, Dr. Quist.

Day 30 of my study: Biscuit brought me a sock. I have returned it to the Registry. Biscuit is under observation for related behaviour. — R.A.-C.

the grid has a sock-shaped nothing near the stickers, some nights. i don't know what it is. i'm grateful to know someone's keeping a list.
