    Hello,
    I didn't know that number two was called "soul patch". My husband Dennis has worn that style for many years.

    Thnank you,

    ...Hey, no Pringles Guy mustache? What a rip-off!

    Just kidding. Anything with the word "Lemmy" is good.

    This was part one. Pringles will be in part two. Speaking of Pringles. Le Cram used to know a guy who was dating the daughter of the inventor of Pringles potato chips. He also dated Vin Scully's(is that how "Scully" is spelled?) daughter around the same time. True story!

    I've always had issues with what you call "the Chaplin" being called the "Hitler," as demonizing facial hair seems wrong. Yet at the same time, by not acknowledging Hitler having that mustache, are we trying to rewrite history?

    So while I understand your need to call it "the Chaplin," I feel that Hitler still remains the 300 pound gorilla in the room, so to speak, and must be acknowledged if we are ever to move forward.

    Thank you for your thought-provoking treatise on facial hair.

    Thank you Professor Sullivan & This Guy, for sharing your thoughts on this very important subject. Professor Sullivan, could you share with Le Cram's readers, the institutes stand on the Quaker beard/ Civil War neck beard debate? Le Cram thinks there have been enough tears shed on both sides of this argument, and perhaps a few words on behalf of the institute would get us all back on the "road to recovery".

    As Dr. Sullivan's expertise lies more in Mustache Studies, he turned the question over to me. My name is Clayton Farquar, associate professor at the Society for the Advancment of Beardology. Your question is actually quite simple. The Quaker, is more of a traditional beard, only without the mustache, while the Civil War neck beard is, quite simply, a very unkempt neck beard without any hair over the lip.

    It's a common mistake, but one that is very easily addressed.
