Regarding Michael Hoffman's June 8 summary ("Dumb men better than dirty 'old' men") of a June 3 Spa! article: From a 57-something guy, I totally agree. If a bunch of guys, especially in suits, get in an elevator, I don't get on. What is it, do guys live in their suits and wash like once a year? Their odors linger in the elevators long after they get off.

And stand next to a bunch of guys who get on a train together. You can almost time your watch to their crescendo to shouting level within 30 seconds.
