    Oy vey! If you're Jewish you can get away with wearing a hat indoors.




    How about a PC with a yarmulke?

    I fought a losing battle on that in my classroom for about ten years. Finally after being called on the carpet by the "Chief Academic Officer" and told that I was being unsympathetic to the needs of the students, I gave up and let them wear any d**mn thing they wanted to. I just wasn't worth the hassle.

    Apologies for getting off topic, but I wonder how many lost out in job interviews as a result?

    Yes. Their need for keeping lids on their heads so their brains don't fall out.

    For the kind of jobs they probably ended up applying for, whether they wore a hat or not, likely wouldn't have made a lick of difference. Hence, I wouldn't even worry about it.

    Teaching at a Japanese college, I get routinely get girls coming to class half-nekkid but I know that their reason for being there is NOT to learn English either so I just try not to stare too much and let the school administrators worry about whether it's too over-the-top or not.

    Once again I feel the need to school my kindred about New Mexico, Uh hem..

    5000 ft + in elevation, during the spring and summer (high wedding season) many weddings are later in the afternoon when the sun (due to Daylight Savings) is still very much in effect. At 5000 + ft ( 1600 meters) the UV Will burn the hide off a baseball. Needless to say the cause of this Thread.

    OK, I'm done, you may resume your discussions.

    In that case you may want to go with the Argyll instead of the PC rig, I think you could do something like this:


    or something like this minus the crommach
