@ChristianHeiens Art Deco is the last movement that was still conversant with the classical tradition. Almost every firm came back post war practicing some form of year zero Modernism, severing our link to the past. Even among those who wish to return, it will take generations to recover.
@CatholicSmark I often find myself starting with Nevr Dull before switching to 0000 steel wool. Cuts through better but doesn't scratch chrome or stainless.
@CatholicSmark The counterargument might be that had the regime not been decapitated you wouldn't have isolated elements launching attacks wily nily, and those at the top would have acted more rationally. Maybe.
