..hey..maybe they aren't Scottish after all?....lol...

anyway..I shouldn't think they are exactly short of cash... more power to them if the don't want to become just another product... I wouldn't buy any product just because a group I liked advertised it ..but I suppose I MIGHT think they had sold out if the group advertised something I disliked...
