You're most welcome, Brian.

By the way, in my discussions with folks in the Iowa Scottish community, the Iowa "dress" tartan doesn't seem to be as popular as the standard Iowa tartan. The Waukee High School Pipe Band, for example, wears the Iowa tartan. I've seen only one other picture of a gentleman in an Iowa kilt (besides myself), and it is also in the standard tartan (mine is more ancient colours) -- I've also seen a number of ladies wearing it in skirts, sashes (my mother included) and so forth.
