Quite right, Scott, but additionally - once it's there, leave it there! Only remove the kilt pin when absolutely necessary (ie: when having the kilt dry cleaned). If you have more than one kilt, you really should have a separate pin for each one to avoid constantly having to remove and refix the lone pin in different kilts.
