Two comments:

1) I agree that the curtains are supposed to hang down behind the
springy cord on the bottom. Like what Trina is describing.

2) I have not replaced the black cord on the bottom yet, but I have
noticed that it looks exactly like the cable housing used on bicycles
for gear and older brake cables. My intention was just to replace it
with housing from a bike shop.
