>What did you hate about them? I found them weird at first - no straight horz or vert lines - every rectangle spangle-shaped, floor and staircase lurching up at me, et al, but I got used to them after about a week and now the brain accommodates all the weirdness. Funny in that when I first started wearing them I was rennovating a room - wall papering, putting up picture rails, etc. All things that involved vert & horz perception. Talk about relying on your instruments! The spirit level was my friend! :-)
So I noticed that every wallpainter (or whatever you call those guys who put up wallpaper, paint your walls and doors etc) I know takes good care to keep the level of their spirits. Never seen a sober one.
