Newbie question: What's a tank?

[ronstew]

Thanks. Any guess as to the origin?

I believe Jimmy Carbomb said that such a kilt "wears like a tank."

[ozmeath]

It's a bit harsh on the kilt that one. I would call it "comforting". And it great in the wind.

I believe Jimmy was referring to the protection, the safe feeling (comfort) the overall feel of having that kilt around you.

It's a comparison to more "casual" or contemporary kilts.

A tank is a heavily armored all-terrain vehicle usually with a rotating turret with a high caliber gun attached.

Sorry, I couldn't help it.
