I don’t know the answer to that but I do know you’ll enjoy listening to a fascinating podcast by our Discovery Institute colleague and friend Andrew McDiarmid on the history of the relationship between Scotland and the UK. Proudly Scottish-born, Andrew hosts the Simply Scottish podcast program and ably serves as Discovery’s media relations specialist and assistant to Center for Science & Culture director Stephen Meyer.
Needless to say, Andrew is keenly awaiting the results of today’s referendum, which we’re told should be known by late tonight, Pacific time.
