    Yes this is a hilarious thought. I can see a whole new meaning to a kilt check. Xmarkers don't care what one wears under a kilt. We just want to know if it's wool or not.

    Add this to our series of tests - access to a microscope would reveal if it were wool or not. Wool is hair with its characteristic morphology.
