What you fail to realize and/or acknowledge is that no one argues that tech suits are expensive or that they have a limited useful life.

By the reasoning above, sub-prime mortgages, worthless securities, toxic assets, and over hyped and over priced swim suits may in fact qualify as a new form of technology!!! Pardon me for igniting everyone again, but I think all of you who get so bent outa shape over criticism of the suit fad are a way bit toooooo sensitive. :argue: By the way, note my new "service mark". :D If all you did was just 'criticize' then I doubt anyone would care. It's your holier than thou jusdgements from on high that set my teeth on edge. Plus the sad fact is that you just seem to get off on being a Troll.
