    I do understand the thought Ron, even though never have given it much thought.

    As I was driving home the other day, it was beginning to get dark and I noticed a guy in his 50's wearing what I thought was a kilt. Drove around the block to stop and talk to him, but as I got closer, noticed that he was wearing those baggy shorts.

    But like MrBill said it is definetly the clothing companies that are pressuring those poor guys.

    Same same here. Seen the shorts, thought they might be kilts, only to be disappointed when I got closer.

    One time the reverse happened though. I was walking around Disneyland as the girlfriend and I are wont to do. I saw a guy that I thought was wearing a pair of baggy carhart shorts only to find he actually was wearing a Caramel Workmans. On that day there was also a third kilted gentlemen walking around The Happiest Place On Earth (tm) independantly of myself or the other gent.

    It's when my one brother dresses like that - that gives me hope that he'll come to his senses and start wearing kilts. He's already wearing shorts almost year-round - kilting year-round will be a step up.

    Streetcar - I've gotten the same reaction myself when wearing my UKs.
