I think Steve's point is well made - I may be re-inventing the wheel with this thread. What I was thinking of was a "shorthand" term for the "modern" kilt much like the term "TANK" is shorthand for the 8 yard hand sewn traditional tartan kilt. The flaw in my logic may be that "TANK" only needs to represent one kilt type while some other shorthand term would need to stand for a range of modern kilt styles. With that acknowledgement made - I still like the term "JEEP" - even if it is a a somewhat pointless exercise.
Cheers!
