    What's Your Vintage Skill Set?

    Well, I can work on pre-computerized cars pretty nicely. This means things like gapping points for tune ups and replaceing components. The vintage cars are so well thought out in their engineering with an eye on easy accessability.;)

    Revealed: Himmler's secret quest to locate the 'Aryan Holy Grail'

    Yeah Smithy Himmler's guys went to Tibet and measured people and took facial impression molds and more. They came to the conclusion that the poeple there were somehow descended from arayans. ??[huh] That document would be worth plenty on the collector's market too.

    Black shirt under a white coat

    This is akin to the old "hat brim up or hat brim down" conjecture. There is no end and only opinions and preferences.[huh]

    Aviation art

    I've met Günther Rall. What a dynamic and facinating individual! He still has the agressive drive of a fighter pilot. I'd wager if you put him in the cockpit of a 109 again he'd still kick ass! My all-time favorite ace is Hans Joachim Marseille. He was a true gunfighter marksman who used...

    Revealed: Himmler's secret quest to locate the 'Aryan Holy Grail'

    Himmler's Ahnenerbe scoured the planet for proof of obscure Arayan links to Germanic ancertory. Hitler actually thought it was a waste of time and resources.

    Crippling of Windows Vista due to content protection?

    Every Windoze version has had issues that have ultimately worked out to varying degrees. Probably best to find the version that works best for your hardware/software and stick with it. MS, Mac or Unix pay your money and make your choice.

    Too many lasers...

    Hmm? I don't patronize Wal Mart but have never experienced the phenomena anywhere else though. :eek:

    Black shirt under a white coat

    Yes a dark shirt of any color looks good under a lighter color jacket- beige, tan, off white, searsucker with light color blend fabrics. And as Reetpleat illustrates it works with darker jacket colors as well.:) Hmm? I think I'll wear my dark brown shirt under my tan suit Saturday instead of...

    Who cares about the boardroom?

    Dressing for yourself goes only as far as the principals in your corporate environment allow. You will be on the carpet if you are not appropriately dressed for certain functions. Since this topic is about the boardroom we need to relate to what is favored by the upper echelon in the corporate...

    The Paradox of the Well-Dressed Man

    Ogrertorix you do hit the proverbial nail on the head. It's a case of dressing appropriately for the venue. Wearing vintage all the time everywhere is dressing in costume. Sure at a swing dance or era-style event it is appropriate but calling on clients for your firm or a business-related...

    BATTLE OF BRITAIN (1940) - Respecting THE FEW.

    I only mention a Spit due to the "appearance" from that angle that they "seem" wider than the Hurri's but the Hurricane's were fairly wide as well. The horizontal stabilizer looks larger than the Spitfire's though too going toward the Hurricane. It's not a 109 for sure!:)

    Flyboys

    Being an air combat history writer and pretty knowledgable on the subject there has yet to be a movie that I cannot find some inaccuracy in. That doesn't prohibit me from becoming immersed in the action. Having done aerobatics in Stearman biplanes and having the knowledge of combat manuevers...

    Do You Get Easily Obsessed?

    We probably all have a small, hardcrore cadre of subjects that we remain obsessed with though which continue for long eras or even lifetimes. If obsessed is too strong a word at least we are deeply interested in them.

    cold weather hats

    I believe if I had to spend any serious time out in really cold weather I'd scrounge up a hat like us kids in the 50s had which looked like bomber crewmen caps with a bill and fold down fuzzy ear flaps.

    Why Dont People Wear Coats Anymore?

    Living in So. Cal. I have no idea what is going on elsewhere. I had a true winter coat in the closet for decades and finally gave it to Goodwill. Any light-medium outterwear will do here.[huh]

    Which religious group?

    Well I was baptized in an evangelical church and went there as a kid. Evangelical then and evangelists now are 2 different things.
