About the rag thingy. I wear one. But it is so my delicate neck skin is not burned to a crisp by the hot Colorado Sun. I need to keep my pretty neck in tact so I won't appear inferior when seen by the spousal unit. (And I have this skin condition - seriously - that gets worse when I'm burned.) So for me its added protection that sunscreen doesn't give me. Don't know about cooler.
