It's who he is.

It's foreshadowed right in the pilot episode. I think Weiner even admitted that. Or someone from the show.

I am always fascinated with the times in which I never experience.
The 60's and 70's are an enigma to me. I feel mad men has helped me to wrap my brain around a tiny portion of that era.

Here is an article from NYT 1967 about the kind of place Don Went to:

In this clip about fashion in the last episode they confirm that the place in the article is the exact place Don was suppose to be at / they re-created

Yeah, I saw that clip the other night. When I watched the last episode, it reminded of Esalen and it turned out to be when I saw that fashion clip. It's still around. I know someone who went there once.

Have been re-watching the entire series on Netflix recently. I loved the show the first time through. Now, it's even better. The foreshadowing is incredible throughout. Weiner doesn't waste a scene.

I have to admit that I miss the time when something important would happen and the world seemed to stop.

Even if people could agree that anything was that important anymore if there were more than 3 people in the room it'd be constantly interrupted by cell phones...
