    Walt--nice work! In answer to your question, yes, I'm another straight shaver in the middle of shaving nowhere. I've tried to get a couple of coworkers started, but they're too spooky about it.

    And yet, SOMEBODY visits antique stores about a week before I do and clears out their straights. Unless that's just a stock phrase among antique dealers... "Oh, you should have come in last week..."

    My wife is very generous with her interest. At least she no longer nods off when I mention shaving.

    Anyway, you guys are lucky.

    +100 on this, meeting some locals was the best learning experience possible as I didn't know anybody using a SR either.

    I wonder how many other SRP members have this same problem of not having a single friend, acquaintance, or family member who gives a rat's "patoot" about this passion in our lives.
    Most everyone rolls their eyes when I talk about shaving. The Mrs. loves to touch my face afterwards, though (she just doesn't want to hear about it).
