    CNN Heroes

    CNN (cable news) last night had a program on, CNN Heroes, which honored ten people from around the world who made a difference. One of the recipients was from Scotland, Magnus Macfarlane-Barrow, who founded Mary's Meals. His group is responsible for feeding over 420,000 children in 15 countries. When he received the award, he was in full kilted regalia.
    The program is being repeated on the channel tonight, etc.

    On one of the previous CNN Heroes there was a Scotsman in a kilt. He had run after a terrorist who tried to bomb an airport terminal in Scotland. It was a couple of years ago.
