But more importantly, for all the reasons given above, I don't think that this kind of "tradition" can spring up on foreign soil, so to speak. Again, there are no cultural antecedents and because of that it seems (to me at least) a little arrogant for those with tenuous (at best) connections to the "founding principles" to be trying to "teach their old granny to suck eggs."

This has been a superb exchange and we are finally getting to the crunch, I think. If I read you correctly, we are still on the wave-length. I do have one question, however: who is "granny"?

Why the "auld sod," of course--Caledonia and Eire and...Rue Britannia
