What a shock: Hamish hit the nail on the head (of course, it's ironic because Hamish *always* hits the nail on the head)! I am almost always drawn to the ancient or hunting tartans; the moderns seem more formal to me-but the older, faded colors state with quiet confidence "I get things done".

Bryan...that's not to say I don't have some modern tartans hanging in the closet...
