There are proponents of each view...........hardly worth a divisive arguement. A couple of posters from New York claimed they are proud to be known Scotch-Irish, yet closer to the action is my cousin Sean Rutledge who lives near London and visits the old family lands on the Anglo-Scot border once every year or two. He says there are no two ways with the Scots, call them Scotch and they'll hand you your head. It seems clear how they feel. PS: Our Rutledges are in OZ too and I would dearly love to visit Australia.
