Subject: [OT] The last word on Scots
Jon T said: Continuing to get OT, I recall many years ago an aged and learned academic (I think it was the late A.J.P. Taylor, actually) pointing out that strictly and pedantically, the term "Scotch" IS the correct term for referring to the natives of Scotland.... it's just that they don't like it..... ;-) [Tomb] We like it just fine thank you. A good Islay, or something from Speyside. 12 Years is good, 15 to 18 is better. Straight up, no ice.;) Too bad you couldn't make it to the ECC this year... maybe for GZG-ECC-V next year?:)
