"Class" Act?
Obviously It would be a matter of affordability and commonsense, if you were a copper, or say a smalltown truckdriver, would you wear your finest Borsalino, (assuming you could afford one) to work? The upper class twit on the other hand, is mostly poncing round in drawing rooms in Mayfair or... -

Stiff Starch Shirts: The Japanese Method

Scorsese Does Hitchcock
colour blind What is the issue with it being in colour? Hitchcock worked in colour as far back as ROPE, and you can't tell me NbyNW didn't look good. It was amusing, but the main issue should be why does someone of the stature of Scorsese need to do ads.- dr greg

A question of fashion...
horses 4 courses It obviously depends on the environment, a light tie/dark shirt would be fine if one were at a soiree or gallery opening or the like, but not at the office. And don't forget that it's all in the eye of the beholder. I went to court once as a witness and wore a D/B suit, as I... -

Japan Hunts Humpback Whales.
quite possibly There is even a white whale to go with it, an albino humpback has made regular visits along the coast here; it's been named Migaloo http://www.migaloowhale.org/ and is adored by schoolchildren and whalewatchers of all kinds. There is real concern that the Japanese will go...- dr greg
