The South is hip deep in Scots, Irish, and Scots Irish..the Stars and Bars (Confederate Battle Flag) was one of over 5 different Confederate flags (maybe if we'd agreed on something for more than a year..;), the actual Confederate battle flag is a square, not the 3x5 form factor. Don't let 'em fool ya. In fact, some of the KKK elements (the burning cross), have roots in the Highlands..alas, with corrupted meanings.

I wish I'd said that.. The Staircase Wit
