Would you get on a commercial plane if you saw the pilot dressed like a beach bum with messed up hair... a three day beard and badly needing a bath...???

Would you trust your money in the hands of a banker who came to work in a bathing suit...???

Clothes show respect... it has been this way for thousands of years on most continents and in most cultures... and... it's not about to change...
