The Rising Tide of Kiltdom at Stanford University

Alan:

Most of the Koreans I've known have been right smart cookies, and it sounds as though Stuart is one too. For me, I can enjoy the kilt BOTH for reasons of heritage and tradition (at least modern generic Celtishness) AND because it's simply a better way to be dressed. Does it go without saying that, were I from Gabon, the second reason would still suffice?

ROCK ON, SIR!

I don't get it: does Gabon not have a heritage and tradition of MUGs, as some of their neighbors do? It seems to me that both reasons might apply there.

Hmm, ya got me there. How about Mongolia? I mean, that's where the cursed device was invented, after all (albeit for quite good reasons).
