Forgot to mention: on my trips north to bash around climbing things, I three times passed a bookstore on 115A in Jefferson called Fishnet, with a cross logo.
Sorry, I just automatically think of stockings, which I think is not where they want me to go. Unless it's part of a much stranger group, that I have yet to hear anything about. Perhaps it is just part of an era that I make that association. A college girlfriend wore orange fishnet hose, which already seemed to be drawing on earlier styles a bit - not so much creepy as puzzling. Four decades later, maybe that association is seldom there for passersby, and fishnet is entirely innocent again.

Symptom of age--yours, mine, when we grew up. Cultural reference. They will come back, as fashions do.
They still seem fairly popular with goth types. I see them in photos from State Street Halloween every year too. They never completely went away.
