Glad you brought up the topic of the Pilgrims... I feel like adding a point or two here. When they came to North America, it can't have been too... civilized... developed... do you think? And yet, the way they seem to be dressed... Well, it's wussy! Nobody would last a day out in the bush or plowing fields in that kind of get up... With those squarish-toed shoes with clunky heels... and a big foppy hat with a belt and buckle on it... and kneesocks and knickers... I'm telling you...one day out in the fields and those kneesocks would be all ripped to hell and full of burrs... The felt hat would be sweat-soaked and soggy... and would probably have been tossed off into the dirt by the person who got tired of trying to work while wearing it... And those clunky big high-heels... Well, they would have been lopped off with an axe within the first hour behind a walking plow... I dunno... I don't buy it... Or else maybe they were just nuts... :-]
