How do folks react to your hat wearing?
I was a plainclothes LEO, and always wore a Fedora. Most people liked it and said so. I ocassionally got the Indiana Jones comment, but always smiled and told them I'd been wearing Fedoras about 20 years before those movies were made! Overall though, mainly positive comments. Cheers, Unkei -
