[pct-l] Kilts

[Greg Kesselring]

What is the deal with kilts?  other than the cool factor, I don't see 
where they would offer any advantages over hiking shorts.  In fact I can 
think of a couple of disadvantages:  no pockets, not as much protection 
for your legs from the weather (on a cool morning, for example). I'm 
guessing they would be heavier than shorts, but I haven't checked this out.

So let's hear from the kilt wearers.  Why do you wear one?  Why do you 
like wearing a kilt better than wearing shorts?
