Many will consider that LaoTsu (translate that as Old Dude)wrote, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." What he really said was something more like a journey of a thousand li (yiwan li) begins with a single step. That's a journey of only 333 statute miles, approximately, not nearly as arduous. You see, although sometimes things get lost in translation, other times things get harder in translation. It seems to me kilt wearing is like that. It's gotten harder in translation, so to say. Of course, if the intent of the journey is merely to cross a line, then a single step is all that's necessary to complete it.
