There is a very good reason why the kilted regiments stopped going into battle kilted.

    True, but I must say that I've helped put shingles on the roof wearing a Utilikilt. Quite a sight, I'm sure, especially with knee-pads! On the other hand, I must also say that my coworkers didn't say anything perhaps out of courtesy, embarrasment, terror, or all the above (excuse the pun).

    But, yes, it eventually comes down to "It all depends... on a bunch of things."
