Have you seen or used someone else's? There is a partial second layer
on the inside of the bags. I don't know its purpose. I appears to be
perforated with teeen tiny holes. When I've washed the bags, sometimes
water gets between the layers and it's hard to get it out -- okay, I had
soapsuds in there. Go ahead, scratch your head and say, "WTH is she
trying to say?" because I'm doing a really lousy job describing it.
