[nfb-talk] thoughts on the new telescopic carbon fiber cane

[Anjelina]

Hi all:
I received my telescoping cane and am impressed. This new cane does not 
easily collapse into itself and it is not difficult to break down. The only 
drawback is the top cap which contains the string fell off the first day. It 
may have been because of rain.
