OK, I'm confused.

Vince and Nina agree - except that I get the impression that the factors listed
by Vince as causes for change are approved of by Vince but not by Nina. I agree
with Nina. I come from a time and place that is totally different to the one we
live in today. Was it better? I know I shouldn't say it but - oh yeah, it was
better.
And then we have:

Again there's agreement but disagreement. David thinks elegance is a by-product
of functionality and good technique while Trini thinks it's due to conciously
adopting a good style. Again, I'm siding with the lady. David, just look at
people in their everyday lives; they function perfectly well; they don't bump
into each other, they don't walk into walls or trip up and they even manage to
walk hand-in-hand or arm-in-arm. But they have none of the elegance of a
dancer.
