If you have not been out in the world you would know the 80's is back in style. Neon colors and Black. Does not mean I like that look, but Gibson is in fashion now. Hold on to that old shirt or tie and it comes back again.

I'm going to disagree with you John, I'll give you two examples.
- Automobiles, look at just about anything current and you'll see some chrome on grilles, wheels etc.
- I work in the Lighting Industry, guess which finish is the most sought after, hottest thing for fixture finish - Chrome, and Polished Nickel. Black isn't quite dead as a color for fixtures (Gold is dead) and interior appointments but there's precious little.
Honestly, I see far more interest in what's called "mid-century modern" based in no small part on the popularity of "Mad Men".
- If we look at fashion, I'd say you' re mush closer to the mark with your '80s comment, and I love '80 fashion, especially girls wearing boots and tights
