I suggest the name of this notes file be changed to reflect the
use to which it is being put. It is not a Celt file but an Irish
file. This is not meant as a complaint.

In just doing a quick scan of the topic titles in the directory,
I find the following to be not Irish:
77, 67, 64, 63, 60, 46, 45, 36, 34, 21, 8, 4, 1
You can also do a Notes> SHOW KEYWORDS to find out what keys have
been enabled, and do a Notes> DIR /TITLE=scotland for example, to
find notes of Scottish interest (but only the ones that somebody
did an ADD KEY Scotland to.
It is not an inherent fault of this file that the ones with the
most blarney in their buffers will be the most frequent contributors.
Let's leave the name alone and encourage some more diverse
participation. I'm still waiting for the Galicians to show up.

re .0:
Is it a genetic trait of Britons to have a hair across their arse?

Re .0: As .1 pointed out, nobody has ever forbidden anyone to
put topics in this file about Celtic subjects not specificaly Irish,
nor do you have to be Irish to participate. I'm myself French, without
even a drop of Breton blood, my only Celtic connection being from
the Gauls, and most of my contributions where in the general Celtic
domain, discussing Irish matters only where appropriate; why don't
you do the same? If more non Irish were participating, maybe there
wouldn't be any reason for complaints such as yours.
