    We Americans love a good show, Singlemalt. That is ne of the mIn differences between Our Canadian cousins and Americans, I believe.

    Canada strikes me as a place where old-fashioned British understatement (my preference, actually) is alive and well. Please feel free to correct me if my perception of your great nation is inaccurate. No disrespect was intended, only admiration.

    America is largely about pushing whatever boundary may (or may not) exist and redefining things (often without any real meaning or purposeful logic). Gawd! You should read the History books our youth in California are reading now...mostly revisionist dribble full of agendised commentary and devoid of solid facts...but I digress.

    Personally, I have never seen this particular practice in person nor had I even heard of it until I joined XMTS. In all fairness to the OP, though, I live in Southern California and almost anything Scottish, British, or otherwise commonplace in the rest of the English-speaking world is wildly foreign here.

    Still, we are all here because of our love of kilts and the like.
