Interesting Irish kilt article

[macwilkin]

I'm not sure what to think. This is the first I've heard of Irish Clan colors. I'm by no means a history or cultural expert though. I don't know enough about the topic to argue in support of or against the idea, but I will say that I would like to know where the author's information came from so I could investigate it for myself.

I'm usually suspicious of someone claiming they have found "proof" of something without saying where such proof is from. Of course, the fact that sources were not cited does not mean that sources don't exist. The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence and all that.

Yeah...I'd like to see some try to use the whole "the absence of evidence" line on a MA or PhD committee.
