Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Oh piffle. Not going extinct. My ex’s office manager was Scottish, recorded bagpipe music, and residents of their Florida town had it installed as the sound their automobile horns played. Handy when the tourist season started and idiot tourists drove around drunk or just stupid.

There's about as much chance that global warming will wipe out the polar bears.

They buried the lede - piping is flourishing in "rural communities and private schools", where it always has -- the authors (and/or their purported source, who may be looking for government grant money) are actually concerned that pipes are too "elitist" and not "diverse" enough, and that the hordes of Muslims and other non-Caledonians are not going to take up the pipes in sufficient numbers to calm their poor nerves.

We are covered up with piping students both here and in the U.K. (the local piping camp in the summer in N.C. has a waiting list). They just are the wrong color (or religion).

AC/DC has the only single bagpipe song that doesn’t make the ears bleed.
