[MR] Re: Scots and Iraq

[t_neill t_neill]

This quote makes me wonder about what their doco shows:

"The programmes - accompanied by a book - also claim the mythical land of 
Atlantis existed in what we now know as the North Sea, and that many Scots 
spoke Old Welsh before Gaelic."

Atlantis?  Extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence. I wonder what 
their evidence is.

And are they saying very few Scots have Viking blood?  Because the area was 
owned by Norway for a long time, and there certainly were vikings and 
scandinavians living there for centuries.
