    Now this, good sir, should really be a sticky!
    Extremely well written, a deep philosophic essay about the true reason why the modern man should shave with a straight.
    My compliments!!

    To paraphrase Obi Wan, other types of razors are "so uncivilized [a way to shave]".

    Thanks for summing it up for us and I, too, will print out your post for those who question why.

    Wow. That was pretty much amazing. I love the reference to driving a manual transmission. You're absolutely right about people just floating through life on autopilot. It's really a shame. Here's a quote from another SRP user that I found a while back that has stuck with me:

    "There is something intrinsically rewarding about developing and then exercising a skill, it doesn't matter what it is. This is a growing casualty of our modern world, where one can almost muddle through without *any* particular skill... what will become of us then?"
