For what it's worth, I know what that's like. Most people didn't quite understand my costume, either, and it didn't help that they thought I was saying "knight" instead of "night," even when I made sure I added "sky" on the end. I recently told a couple of college students about the costume, and they actually thought it was a neat idea. I guess you and I were just ahead of our times.
