Thank you for sharing that link, Dutchy.
An intertesting article but very much from the authors (typical) American point of view directed to a general American audience. Though I personally take exception to some of what was said and the use of terms like "modern era" and "kilts have become more mainstream", I certainly understand the intent of the article and appreciate its positive portrayal of the Kilt.

Simon Fraser fought as MacShimidh, a Highland chief… wrapped and belted in a plaid over the top of his linen shirt, like his ordinary kinsmen. He put a bonnet on his head, and stuck the Fraser emblem, a sprig of yew, in it. With the battle cry, A'Chaisteal Dhunaidh and the scream of the pipes, they charged to battle. "The Last Highlander" Sara Fraser
