    Well, "cloth" covers a huge array of woven materials, including wool. (And, I mean, wool is still a high-end option in the Japanese market - as I understand, it's what older rich people choose, in preference to leather.)

    But, yes, nylon is what's normal.

    Wool seems the most environmentally responsible choice. OTOH, maybe you need to contend with moths? (n)

    Well you made me reread it line by line; did you fix all the mistakes? I can't find a one. That was just a ploy to get more "reads", right? :p

    Old people have the majority of the money. Ready to "head into retirement" is more likely to mean "flush with cash and assets" than "not able to afford it."

    I make few mistakes because Techron.

    I burn Techron gas exclusively. It's fumes do not cause confusion. Therefore, I make few misteakes.
