I'm not wanting to quibble (and I like flatcaps, myself...especially the newsboy variety) but just because someone saw something worn with a kilt...or as a kilt...yesterday, doesn't make it traditional. Or more to the point, Traditional Highland Attire.

In keeping with being a "traditionalist" I am very traditional about the meanings of words...believing that words do have specific meanings unrelated to wish fulfillment. If we can't agree on what a "tradition"
is...even when a highly respected dictionary (the OED) is referenced...then it is very hard to communicate anything other than basic emotions, no matter how highly articulated our grunts.
