    Hmmmm, to jump off topic here, if a group of crows is a murder, and group of sheep is a flock, what is a group of tartans?

    1 tartan is called a single malt.

    A group of tartans are called a blended malt.

    That's a smart looking outfit. You mint want to invest in a pair of hose that have a larger turnover but overall a nice smart outfit.

    I like it, mostly because it is simple and covers all the bases of kilting. I agree that more turnover in the hose would be nice, but it is a small detail that I didn't notice until Jordan mentioned it.

    Looks like there's been a Whole bunch of changes over there at Matt's web site; someone's been doing some major HTML code crunching.
    I think this might be the article you are talking about,cajunscot, but I'm not sure.
    http://www.albanach.org/sources.html
    The articles now load into an in-line frame, and it gives a "link to" address.

    I would have to look at his source code, but I think the page address stays the same no matter what loads into the frame...

    * Ya, I looked at a saved copy of that page, and he now has a single page with a navagation bar and an iframe that all the links of the navagation target. If you save a "HTML only" copy of that page, it will not save the article, and using the address from the brouzer's address bar will just load the home page. You'll have to get new addresses for all the articles, in place of the old links, to link to them, as far as I can tell.
    Hope that helps.

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
