So long as we know he's alive and well, we can rest assured that he is rocking the triple tweed.

If you ask me, he was the stupidist persona that I hae seen on any of these boards.  He was neither interesting nor intriguing.

What is this about ?

The Traducean Creed

We believe in one trad,
the Undarted, the Sack,
clothing of heaven and earth,
of all that is, seen and unseen.

We believe in single breasted suits, with three button rolling to two fronts,
the only true American suit,
eternally begotten of Brooks Brothers,
single vent from single vent, undarted from undarted,
patch pockets from patch pockets,
not bespoken, but made,
of one being with the Andover Shop.
Through whom all things were made.
For us and for our sartorial salvation
the trad came down from Manhattan:
by the power of the holy shears
and became incarnate from a preferably not too expensive cloth,
and was made a suit.
For our sake it was forgotten in the 1960s;
suffered death and was buried.
Two decades later it became stylish again
in accordance with the Preppy Handbook;
then ascended into sartorial heaven
cuffed and flat fronted.
The sack suit will come again in glory to hide the physique of the living and the dead,
and its influence will have no end.

We believe in the button down collar, of oxford cloth, the shirt of life,
which proceeds from the Brethren and the Press.
With the Brethren and the Press it is worshiped and glorified.
The trad has spoken through the Brethren.
We believe in 2 and 7/8 inch striped ties.
We acknowledge one grosgrain ribbon band for the securing of watches.
We look for the resurrection of the trad,
and availability at retailers nationwide. Amen.
