    Oh man, I'm a Campbell descendant with a mix of Scottish and Irish blood, does this mean I have to commit atrocities on myself? And what about all those Irish Catholic schoolgirls wearing Black Watch skirts, man, you better go tell someone, before they find out what they're representing and a long downward spiral into depression and despair begins.

    You might as well add Campbell of Argyll and Dress Campbell to the list of universal tartans, MacCailein Mor doesn't recognize either for use by the clan.
