It is a problem common to all internet bulletin boards, irrespective of subject matter discussed.

Grow thick skin if you are going to play on the net, and don't take anything too seriously. (good advice, even for reality based experiential living)

I like the four yard box pleat myself. Made several in different variations, waiting for one from Matt. Looking forward to seeing a professional job.

I really like the design of the "old kilt" at the museum that he (Matt) wrote the article about that is knife pleats both sides, and a box in the middle at the back.

It's all good, and better than trousers, from my point of view.
