I cannot tell you why, but that reminded me of one of the outcomes from the ex-urban calamity up in New York called Woodstock.
People who were looking over the scene on the next day encountered a young man who, except for the mud caking his long hair and body, and a single shoe, was entirely naked.
“Lost a shoe, huh?” They asked him.
“No, man!” he responded with a happy grin, “I found one!”
