Here's a little story for you. In September I saw a specialist for a blood disorder - nothing serious I'm just a bit too "red blooded." This MD happens to be an Oncologist and during our chat I mentioned I occasionally chewed snuff but was meaning to get some patches or something to help me stop. He said "I can help you with that... its all BullS%#&t..." The he looked me over and said "Is that kilt County Cavan tartan?" I said "yes" He said "I thought so" then he looked me dead in the eye and said "You know anyone strong enough to wear a kilt whenever he wants to is strong enough to quit chewing." and added "There's cancer and there's cancer... you don't want this one." I quit that day - no patches, no pills, no kidding.
Turns out he used to wear a kilt daily when he was a young man and his family lived in Scotland.
Best of luck to you!
