    I could tell you how to manufacture a bagpiper, but this is a family forum!

    Sorry, yes, that (to me) is Reverse Kingussie -- just an obvious shorthand, and also used on this board (for example, in this thread. AKA Rev-K, which would be a more distinctive abbreviation -- next time I'm tweaking my site, I'll clarify that.

    Interesting - they appear to have stolen (borrowed?) this forum's name for a eyeglass case. Is the name X Marks the Scot copyrighted?

    I don't think the mods will allow me to go into detail, but it requires some fiddling around

    That phrase did not originate with XMTS.com. If you check your facts, as we did, XTMS.com refers to the issue in their discussion of use of forum name. A simple Google of the phrase will show that it is part of the vernacular -- while several specific forms of the phrase have been copyrighted, including XMTS.com, the general phrase itself appears to us to be public domain.

    If there were to be a legitimate copyright holder, and that legal entity made itself known to us, we would certainly abide by whatever legal constraints were suggested.

    P.S. Memory kicked in after this posting. At the time that I contacted XMTS.com forum owner about advertising, I specifically called his attention to that product and asked if there were any problem with it. He did not answer that question directly, but by accepting my advertising money and posting a link to my Web site I believe he provided the "no problem" answer.

    I have had several emails from the same company, offering to supply various kilt related articles for sale in my store.

    As my site does not have a store, it is informational, I answered their first email thanking them for their interest , and explained I had no use for their services.

    They don't take no for an answer, and continue to submit emails through my sites "contact us" page, I no longer take the time to read them, so you can expect more of the same.

    Kind Regards,

    David.
