I would like to remind all that here on X Marks the Scot we show courtesy when we post our views.
gilmore offers some interesting points but I would like to point out that cloth is cloth. Meaning and importance are in the eyes of the beholder. There is history of course, but frankly that really comes to mean that someone in the past assigned value to a thing. What is worthless to some is priceless to others.
Let's be careful in assigning the label "foolish" to things.
And let us remain the Ladies and Gentlemen of X Marks the Scot.
Respectfully
Jamie
