    Thanks for the input Jock. I was thinking that a live Piper might overwhelm other class presentations since many will have audio presentations operating simultaneously, and we will certainly put together a presentation board explaining the kilt as Highland Scott apparel until more recently, and even now not daily wear for the vast majority. When researched and presented well international night is a great opportunity to educate and dispel stereotypes, when done poorly it serves to reinforce them. I am only one voice of input in this project, but I will do my best. Keep the suggestions coming rabble.
