Well, at least we got a link to some pictures from a Texas Scottish festival in the comments:

Other than that ... Well, it's useful and instructive to find out what people from other parts really think of Americans. The theme in the comments seems to be that the Scots want our money, and they greatly regret that people like us are the ones holding it in the first place. I don't think Tartan Week is a "joke" the way some commentators say; those of us who know about it tend to treat it more reverently than, say, National Soup Month.

One interesting comment: What if they changed Tartan Week to Scottish Week? Would that make the event more popular? I think it might. At least a little more accessible.
