Good point, Truman...however, I have *always* had a problem with sweat in
my eyes (can't stand it for a second! -- ZERO tolerance) so I've been
wearing a bandana for all physical exercise (and at work -- I work in
surgery besides at the barn) for about 15 years.  Have one whole drawer
just for bandanas!  No sweat in the eyes at all!!  (Besides, it helps me
maintain my "aging hippie" look and keeps me from getting a lot of forehead
wrinkles. <g>)
