I like wearing a suit, and I concur that person-who-wears-a-suit != a Suit 
(uppercase "S"). In fact, there is a nice paralell between the rescue community 
(and like minded souls) who go to a tailor and have a suit custom made. They 
choose not to suffer overpriced, mass-produced crap.  There are those who go to 
Saks or whatnot to pay $2000+ for an Armani suit (cause, it's Armani, of 
course!) and then walk around with the label still on the sleeve (a MAJOR PEEVE 
OF MINE). Real good stuff is often cheaper, better fitting, and, overall 
superior, it just takes a bit more knowledge of what you're buying. 

There are those who like suits, and there are those who like suits-that-are-
expensive-cause-they-say-I'm-rich. Generally, the latter are Suits.
