Be that as it may, I've always liked the more subtle "Land of Enchantment" tartan best. As someone who's traveled to, and all over New Mexico many, many times in his life, mostly by motorcycle, I have a real love of the place, really second only to Texas. So I would be proud to wear the Land of Enchantment tartan.
Mark, do you know if the images of the SOS proclamation are still around somewhere on the 'net? Since Geocities closed down, I haven't been able to find them.

Normally it would take a vote of the legislature for the SOS to recognize a new official symbol of a state.
