What, if any, is the significance of the Rainbow tartan? I seem to have missed something here.
Googling 'rainbow tartan' yields a thread from this site circa 2006, and that seems to be about the only meaningful reference to the subject. Someone posted they'd found info saying it's "A bright and colourful design which has been adopted by the Gay community in Los Angeles." Then the thread got locked pretty quickly and without any more concrete information being brought forward.
