MacMullen,
Thanks Matt! Maybe you can answer another question for me - why is the "Wisconsin" tartan called, the "Wisconsin of Scotland" tartan? Is there anything in the notes about that?
Just so happens my wife invited me to join her in Scotland after she finished her study abroad with the University of Wisconsin. Being a rather simple and studious sort, I jumped on the first plane I could catch (would have settled for a canoe!) and joined her. UW has a small campus at Dalkeith which has a display case with a small peice of the UW Scotland tartan! Seems it was specially designed when the university accuired the House at Dalkeith.
In short, I FINALLY KNOW THE ANSWER TO AN OBSCURE TARTAN QUESTION!!!!
Sorry, just had to celebrate my little victory.
