Alternatively stated, each pocket 14 . . . 24 has a respective axis 28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38 generally defining a center line of the receptacle of each pocket 14 . . . 24. When the elongated flexible web 12 is held from a handle, such as the strap 40, and allowed to depend therefrom by gravity, or if the flexible elongated web 12 is held uncoiled with its length oriented horizontally, i.e., as depicted in FIG. 2, the exes 28 . . . 38 will generally be parallel to one another. In the coiled condition dep...
