I don't mean to be a wet blanket here, but I thought I'd just mention an exchange I had with a Scot in the early days of my kilt-wearing.

We were talking tartans, and I mentioned that there were lovely tartans for the clergy....my Scottish friend looked at me with an angry eye and proceeded to lecture me on the unfavorable role the clergy had played in the Highland clearances!!

Just goes to show how sensitive some issues can be, and how we can tumble into traps we never dreamed of!!

But, if you like the tartan and what it means to you, WEAR IT, I say!
