any success stories with puncture resistant bicycle tires?

i tried to ride before a doctor's appointment. i had FOUR flats. i fixed my first flat, laughed about it..and noticed a goat-head sticker in the front..flicked it off and heard. "PHISSSSH!"..haha..fixed the front..no problemo.

i make it 100 yards and got another..fixed it..went away, and the patch failed. 4 flats. it was brutal. i ran out of CO2 and had to use my hand pump.

after the doctor's appointment, i bought some continental gaterskin tires. hope they work. any success? the conti's came in the 700x32 i need, altho i did drop a size to 700x28.

i think the park service mowed the trail and kicked all the sharp thorns out onto the asphalt.
