Actually, it is the Welsh who have the reputation of being the sheep-shaggers in the British Isles, not the Scots.

I would point out that a Scot, Alexander Mackenzie, was the first man to ever cross the entirety of North America in 1793.
The fact he did that first, for Britain, so upset Thomas Jefferson, that he initiated the Lewis and Clark expedition.
Mentioning Thomas Jefferson - god, how far down the drain, the US has sunk in leadership quality.
Jefferson and Obama - like me comparing myself with Einstein.
Really?
Jefferson
1803 - initiated Indian removal as pat of land grab
1807 Embargo act caused economic chaos and had to be abandoned after a year
excessive spending of funds the US didn't have
picked Napoleon over the British and caused the War of 1812
a traitor to Washington and Adams and the US to the point of preaching secession by Virginia
didn't do jack to stop British from impressing Americans
and worst of all he invented the pedometer starting off the concept that walking is a 'sport'
convincing UVA students that their stuff doesn't smell runs a close second to the pedometer
Pick someone other than Ol Turncoat Tommy
They figures out religious violence long before the Muslims did.
The telephone, penicillian, insulin, radar....
It's the Muslim countries who haven't brought anything positive to humanity for the last 100 years.
How about James Clerk MAxwell!?!
"His discoveries helped usher in the era of modern physics, laying the foundation for such fields as special relativity and quantum mechanics. Many physicists regard Maxwell as the 19th-century scientist having the greatest influence on 20th-century physics. His contributions to the science are considered by many to be of the same magnitude as those of Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein.[7] In the millennium poll—a survey of the 100 most prominent physicists—Maxwell was voted the third greatest physicist of all time, behind only Newton and Einstein.[8] On the centenary of Maxwell's birthday, Einstein himself described Maxwell's work as the "most profound and the most fruitful that physics has experienced since the time of Newton".[9]-wiki

their lack of contribution is their greatest contribution
What on earth do they teach you in school these days in America?
To denigrate the author of your famous Declaration of Independence?
His accomplishments and the value of his leadership to the infant US would fill a couple of pages of Letsrun.
As for ‘excessive spending of funds the US didn't have’ - he drastically cut federal government spending and reduced the national debt by more than 25 percent.
Your national debt was £10 trillion the day Obama was inaugurated.
It is nearly $18 trillion now!
Oh, and by the way, Jefferson still had the funds available to double the size of the then US by purchasing the Louisiana Territory from Napoleon in 1803.
Try Wikipedia about his life and accomplishments - then look at Obama’s.

Meanwhile, Jefferson amassed massive personal debt during his lifetime. He was said to have spent lavish amounts of money on his rare book collection and wine cellar. I would like to have known him.
what the hell? wrote:
Where does it prove definitively that Scots or the South Americans or any race besides the Africans traveled from East Africa? It's a theory. Just like the one that says the different races developed individually on different continent.
I wouldn't say your theory is "just like" the other one.
Thomas Jefferson was the 'Fraud' of the millennium.A two faced hypocrite.
He professed love of Liberty but held others in bondage.He counseled thrift
but lived beyond his means and left his estate bankrupt.He also preached morality but raped an under age female slave Sally Hemings.Did not even
have the moral bearings to free from bondage his own offsprings.
why should i read wikipedia? I already know more about him than you do
Jefferson did not get along with George Washington, that's all I need to know.
ticking to the La. Purchase:
Jefferson promised 1. to be frugal 2. to eliminate national debt 3. to limit executive and federal power
instead he: spent lavishly on the White House and other projects, gazillionified the national debt to take on the Louisiana Purchase and 3. did the Louisiana Purchase without constitutional authority or congress' approval
but if you really like wikipedia: Jefferson's first "act as president, was to make a deal with the state of Georgia that if Georgia were to release its legal claims to discovery in lands to the west, then the U.S. military would help forcefully expel the Cherokee people from Georgia. At the time, the Cherokee had a treaty with the United States government which guaranteed them the right to their lands, which was violated in Jefferson's deal with Georgia."
Jefferson advocated removal or extermination of native americans.
Did one of them invent dilithium crystals?

A Scottsman, Polack, and Italian are walking along a country lane and come upon a sheep with his head caught in a fence. The Scottsman says "Oh, this is our lucky day and proceeds to fvck the hell out of the sheep. He then turns to the Polack and says. "OK, you're next". The Polack then sticks his head in the fence.

Some hate the English. I don't. They're just wankers. We, on the other hand, are COLONIZED by wankers. Can't even find a decent culture to be colonized BY. We're ruled by effete arseholes. It's a SHITE state of affairs to be in, Tommy, and ALL the fresh air in the world won't make any f***ing difference!"
That book alone is a great contribution in my opinion.

The dish originated at chip shops in Scotland
