    Re: The dichotomy: the "Edgy" old guy just looks silly

    Well at a tad over three score years and ten most of you are mere whipper-snappers! I have never worn a pair of jeans, or a T shirt. I have never been a slave to fashion although I might have a piece of clothing that is just in, or just out of fashion and on the rare occasion might even be in fashion. Do I care what others think? Well yes I do, to a certain extent, I certainly have no wish to put my friends in an awkward situation and I have left behind the thought of dressing for effect or to shock, many years ago. There are times when we all have to put away individualistic thoughts for the greater good and that may be boringly responsible, but necessary. However for the majority of my life I have resisted this rather drab idea of acting my age and following the multitude.

    Alan, you just carry on carrying on.
