well look at some good examples: Santa Claus.......now who wouldn't trust him? Hemingway is another, Moses had a beard in all the photos I have seen, and he sold the Ten Commandments.

When I was still "in the job market" I shaved when looking for a job, so I'd appear younger, then grew the beard back to appear older and "sager". I didn't know that "research" would bear out what I intuited.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
