In '89 I was the (most) junior member of a development team at IBM. At meetings I noticed that if I stroked my beard and looked thoughtful in meetings, people would stop talking and listen to me. Are people hard-wired to think that men with beards are somehow more wise than those without? I do wonder if it was correlation or causation here. http://www.folklore.org/StoryView.py?project=Macintosh&story=Moustache.txt&showcomments=1#comments
