It’s kinda funny, but the man in the brown suit looks almost exactly
like one guy I knew who was involved with one of those “culty” groups
I encountered in the past.  He wore brown suits just like that, and he
always talked with the “mid-Atlantic” accent that you only hear in old
movies.

Smart guy, interesting character, but scary group.  I hope he’s doing
okay nowadays...

Yeah, I guess that stock image of the guy bothers me too.

They could have gone whole hog and made him look steampunk.  But nope!
