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?:)
