Yikes!

I think the 3 brands I see mentioned the most as being flat-resistant are the Schwalbe's mentioned above, Continental Gatorskins and Specialized Armadillos.

I've had the Gatorskins and had very good luck with them.
I also have stock Bontrager 32c's on a Trek 520 with zero flats after 2,500 miles of mostly commuter miles.

If I had a flat every other day I'd switch, pronto.
