    But maybe that's part of the torture, flaming PV throughout eternity. Tell THAT to the tat makers

    Ooo, how about a nomex kilt then?? That's an idea...

    I could probably find and post all of the websites referring to what I was posting about but it would just aggravate me further.

    I'm very lucky in the fact that my work is way cool with me in my kilt. They frankly don't care. It does get noticed by customers, but it usually sparks a good conversation.

    I'm going to go put on my kilt and walk around, troll for the ignorant.

    Have a great thanksgiving ya'll.

    No. Nomex is a fire and flash resistant material that doesn't burn, drip or melt when exposed to fire. I WILL burn if held in contact with a continuous flame, but as soon as the flame is taken away, it will not sustain combustion.

    Here's the wiki on it-

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomex

    Huh, I learned something. It was originally used as a parachute material for the space program...

    I have used it extensively, first as an 19K (Armor) in the army, then later as a firefighter/EMT.

    It comes in almost any color you can imagine. Great for a hell-kilt.
