Making of menstral pads

[http://users.livejournal.com/__recidivist/]

I though some of you might be interested in this five minute video on how commercial disposable menstrual pads are made.

I thought the demonstration of absorbsion speeds was interesting. The other day a roommate and I discussed a couple unfortunate times when we, for whatever reason, had found ourselves with only one pad to last all day. Easy to see why we each made it out unstained on those days.
