According to wikipedia:

Tricot is a special case of warp knitting, in which the yarn zigzags vertically, following a single column ("wale") of knitting, rather than a single row ("course"), as is customary. Tricot and its relatives are very resistant to runs, and are commonly used in lingerie.

Is Tricot any good? Let's see... All the pyjamas that Cable Car Clothiers currently has for sale are made of cotton.

Back in the early days of museums, it was common for plaster casts to be made of, well, just about everything. Then they all swapped. Result: tons of casts. Then the fashion changed. Museum-goers only wanted to see the real artefacts and thousands of plaster cast replicas went off to storage. There are a few galleries here and there. The Victoria And Albert has one, and you "Oxford Scholars" that I was yelling at in the last post can sneak off to a back alley and visit the Ashmolean's cast gallery. Some of these cool old casts seemed to have found their way to the Giust Gallery. Zeus there now goes for $200, in case you're interested.

The Cinnamon Reef Beach Club is now called "The Enclave at Cinnamon Reef." Looks like they've done the place up a bit.
