I've made similar promises to myself as well - and sometimes even kept them! 
As I said, if you should ever become so inclined again to make another survey.

It is/was no big deal one way or the other.
I had the impression from your previous post that the majority of attendees were Scots in dinner jackets instead of kilts. Then again, it might be interesting to see if these non-Scots were kilt-wearers or aspiring kilt wearers such as found here on XMTS. I'm reminded of a Canadian friend of Polish extraction (no Scots at all) who served in the Canadian Black Watch so he could wear a kilt.
