Hey folks,
  I've noticed that cotton t-shirts are kind of okay for cleaning Nikon 
lenses but dress shirts and neckties are TERRIBLE. As it's become trendy for 
slackers like me to dress fancy I find my eyeglasses and Leitz glass so 
smudgy it's like looking through a consumer grade Canon zoom lens, which 
gives me headaches and makes me not want to take photos. I have some lens 
cloths, but I'm looking for some sort of solution that attaches to a camera 
strap or a keychain or something (possibly retracting into some sort of 
housing to keep clean?) and that I can get in quantities so I can attach one 
to each of my camera bags and my Domke vest and my Tilly hat. Does anybody 
have any Way Cool recommendations? (And please do not say "Ted's Underwear", 
I've looked into it and the markup from Hermes is prohibitive - I could just 
buy new lenses for what they want for a pair of his cast-off boxers.)

Kyle
