Little Black Dress
thank you, Paisley, for starting this thread; i've learned already! i don't own any dresses, but if i ever venture forth, i'll be prepared. but it seems this should be called the little neutral dress, due to its careful avoidance of affiliation!- melankomas

Vintage versus Modern Physics
doesn't it? while the Dark Matter side of things is quite lovely, the failure to detect anything to prove it is a bit dubious. but then, the whole neutrino issue was equally dubious...- melankomas

Vintage versus Modern Physics
i've mentioned this topic in the Life on Mars thread, and i've looked around to find a nice, recent summary of the topic, since i doubt i could explain these things very well. the best i could do was this article from Discover magazine: http://discover.com/issues/aug-06/cover/ my...- melankomas

What would you wear?
:offtopic: there's an interesting discussion about suit "quality" at the moment, elsewhere. what defines the quality of the fabric composing a dress, and how does it make this impact?- melankomas

What would you wear?
:offtopic: i don't understand "the player and the power". i know the words, but don't understand what they mean in this sense. if it's not too much trouble, could you explain? forgive my language difficulties, please; i'm a bit confused. i will remember the expression's meaning when i...- melankomas

Who is Your Beauty Muse?
:offtopic: anorexia has been a serious problem for a very long time. as one example, and certainly not the eldest, i believe women (possibly men, i have no idea) during Queen Victoria's reign suffered from anorexia prompted by the desire to appear pious and unworldly. i could very well have...- melankomas

What would you wear?
to be perfectly honest, i wouldn't have a clue what to wear. i am quite good with when to wear detail or parade BDUs, service dress, or mess dress, but i have no inkling what should be worn at such an affair (beyond what i've now read in this thread). if there was an RSVP involved, i would ask...- melankomas

Show us what you've made!
GOK... you're wonderfully talented! i think i like the windows in the classrooms best, but it's hard to say. you must have a lovely home, if your attention to detail on the doors in your daughter's room is any indication. out of curiosity, just what can you not do? Miss Dottie... i like...- melankomas

The quality of a suit
in addition to Mr Maltby's points, i'll add that perhaps people who are purchasing these luxury items like to feel in fashion (as many people do, luxury items or no). fashion today is quite fickle. it may have always been so, but i've not studied fashion history enough to say. a suit that...- melankomas
