How would you describe your style? Archaic. I really like the old gentleman look.

This guy has some truly good ideas and his style is positively idealistic. Plus, he has lived in NYC which brings credit to his perspective. How do I know? That's for me to know and you to never care about. My style is apathetic which builds up until it boils over into a pinstripe suit. Good luck figuring that one out. Peace Stu.
