It’s difficult to be entirely dispassionate about something that has been in my family for centuries. So, full disclosure: Throughout the do-wo-go, do-we-stay debate on Scottish independence, I've been on the side of staying the course with the U.K. and I am relieved that Scottish pride and the knee-jerk, up-yours attitude that once resulted in moors sodden with ill-spent blood spilled by the English gave way to what the Scottish are born to—a calculating practicality that eventually wins the day.
