RE: "303, you've got a Richard 23 thing going on."

I never did explain myself did I?

Richard 23 was a member of the EBM industrial act "Front 242." Early in their career, their image was defined by paramilitary outfits (the kinda looked like fighter pilots) and dark wrap-around sunglasses or goggles. They even had a phase where all of their record covers were close ups of swimmers wearing Speedo type goggles. You may remember their big song "Welcome to Paradise" that had the vocal sample "Hey poor, you don't have to be poor any more! Jesus is here!"

You avatar and your username reminded me of them (esp. the singer Richard 23).
