    Hey Dread, I have a solution for your problem. Get your doctor to PRESCRIBE kiltwearing as a health measure. The building management can't argue that.

    Hey... My doctors really did tell me to stop wearing pants.

    Anyhoo, the issue is settled. I just chatted about it a while ago. I educated them (rather kindly) on what a kilt was. Two of them had never even heard of a kilt. They were actually scared that maybe they had just made a real mistake... And the first thing they wanted to know when I came in to the office was if I had contacted a lawyer. They don't need another public relations fiasco. I got an apology.

    They even thanked me for thinking so highly of where I live that I go about in formal dress.

    I must have really scared them.

    And the dreadlock issue was resolved to. I explained to them that I am not a Rastafarian, I do not do drugs, and mine are for personal and religious reasons.

    I was asked to try and keep them tucked under a bandana or a hat though.

    Dread, glad to see they're backing off. Communication can work wonders sometimes.
