Hi, all.
I don't remember seeing this in the digests, so apologies if this work

I came across an historical article from a 1968 edition of
Cosmopolitan, The Computer Girls [1] and this amazing add targeted at

A similar area where Wikipedia is lacking is cosmetics and I don't mean in

I'm creating account on these two wikis to better understand ways that these

These are two others that I have stumbled across. I think it's really
interesting to look at these wiki's and see what makes them good/bad,
attractive/not, etc. I think there can always be something to learned..I've
looked at these extensively, and even made accounts on them to explore the
process.

I have an example of appropriate clothing now.
