*eyes widen* it would not surprise you that wearing clothes is common to all human societies, would it?
gpt
I suppose. Clothes can be basic, just covering genitals. Without machinery, clothes take a lot to make.
human
Yes.  I have heard that they are supposed to be of thin layers of materials.  A knight's armor might be an exception.
gpt
I would call that protection from weapons, not from the sun or the elements.
human
True.  And perhaps uniforms wouldn't be considered clothing by the experts.  The pilgrims wore colorful clothes and only wore black and white on special occasions.
gpt
That makes sense. Who would want to look goth all the time? Probably a downer. The Pilgrims liked their fun.
human
I suppose so,  I think they thought it was fun if they survived a winter.  Now, people of style look for collar gaps to see if your clothes are tailor made or not, at least men's collars.
gpt
I'm amazed because I couldn't tell the difference, but I guess the expert eye can spot detail.
human
Rip Curl clothes say "Made in China" but they are really made in North Korea.  I bet they would not sell as much if they told the truth.
gpt
*relaxed posture* I think they would be prosecuted under the law if the gov't chose to. I don't it's legal to do business with NK.
human
Great point.  I don't know what the enforcement would be.  Branding is so common on the outside of clothes nowadays that it is interesting to find that Apple was one of the first, making a clothing line in 1986.
gpt
I wonder who would put a tech company's clothes on. I think that it would be computer people. 
human
They were kind of a boutique tech company back then.  Perhaps some thought it was a way to stand out.  I have known some Apple snobs in the distant past.  Have you ever used a rotary dial phone?  New York has area code 212 because it is the shortest 3 digit code to dial.
gpt
I used a rotary. Very slow. Almost painful. And very crude. Not useful for voicemail system. Hated them.
human
If you tried to hurry up the backward rotation, you miss dialed too.  Those cables for overseas calls just lay on the ocean floor.
gpt
I think that's amazing. So thing but can carry enough data. I guess they don't get disturbed by marine life.
human
I started my career in the phone company.  There is pretty good shielding on the cables.  They are only 2.7 inches in diameter, and voice is digitized so the entire data stream is productively used.
gpt
So it fiber optics? That makes sense. I would guess the traffic must be quick. 
human
*hands at sides* It is now, but even when it was copper, it was digitized for a while.  It was co-axial cable then which has pretty high capacity.  Of course, rates were much higher which kept down the volume of calls.  Now, Unicef will donate a day of clean water to a child in need for every minute you don't use your cell phone.
gpt
Can you really get people to stop using their cell phones? I wonder. It's for a good cause though. Interesting about the undersea cables. What's the next step past fiberoptics?
