Will,
I, along with many others, have great admiration for you and enjoy the
wealth of knowledge you share. Thanks. Can't understand why some people
think they are so much better because of the way they dress or speak.
Regards,
Larry N5BIP

Thanks Tony, I'll do my best.
Now I've heard of all kinds of men's suits, but I never heard of the one
this guy mentioned below. I do have a Hart Schaffner & Marx which has the
silk drawers, and the patch with the guy blowing a bugle on a horse. For a
hick, I do know how to dress, and know how to spell the names of the ones I
wear. I thought the Marks Brothers was a comedy team? Anyhow, enough on
this. I just feel sorry for our members who do live in Mississippi in that
they had to see this.
I quote;
"You could wear a Hartschatner and Marks Brothers suit and you'd be
considered a slouch as soon as you opened your mouth"
Best,
Will
