Edward: I read about that on Scottish news lists!! Here in the New York area, all we got on national news was a 30-second clip of the NY Police Irish PIpe band marching down 5th Avenue!!! The announcer stated that there were 10,000 pipers in the parade. That was it!! Not a Scotsman, politician or otherwise, on any news program. Eileen > Do you not remember that there was Tartan day in April to mark this > alleged fact. > It was we were told well publicized including Scottish politicians > being over and a parade of pipers in New York > Edward Andrews
