The United Kingdom Will Remain United

   It was a historic vote in Scotland, as people flocked to the polls to decide whether or not to sever a 307 year old union with Britain, and become independent again.
   When all the votes were tallied, the "No" side had 55%, the "Yes" forced 45. It means, at least for now, the status quo will continue. Or will it? The simple fact there was a referendum, and the fact 45% of Scots favour a split could well mean a re-alignment of the relationship between the 2 countries. In fact, the surge in support of the "Yes" faction in the weeks ahead of the vote has already seen a pledge to grant more powers to Scotland.
   And the "Yes" side has not ruled out another referendum in the future, although will be years, if not decades, away.
   I decided to celebrate by donning the kilt, even though I'm not "officially" Scots:
