American Made By Ralph Lauren?

As I was tooling around the web the other day to see if any of my recent projects had comments or press, I came across this comment by a "Ralph Lauren" in on a Providence Journal blog,"Looks like one of Claiborne Pells old suits that I made for him." Is this THE Ralph Lauren or a Mr. Lauren in Rhode Island, or a prankster? I have always heard the recently deceased Claiborne Pell was a very frugal man, especially with his clothes. I even met the man when I first moved to Rhode Island. To whomever made this comment, I am honored, as this is a souped up frugal suit!
