Quote:To Matt Lanteigne: I am not biased, but as you can see, there are many 'linophiles', so I merely put forward a case for leather. But if I am biased, what does your signature say about you ?LOL We must each put forward a best case for our causes, surely?
I like to think my signature says that I need more than some kind of fantasy to go on before I say X is Z because of Y. Unless I make a disclaimer and say "I have no evidence for this, but I'm doing it because...". Otherwise I'm just lying. All the evidence for leather as a use as main body armour for this period is so blatantly weak, especially what's been brought forward in this thread. I honestly wonder about where people get the idea from, if not from Hollywood. I love thinking outside the box (I was a graphic designer for 7 years), but when people start thinking outside the rules and evidence, I can't help but shake my head at my monitor.
