Praying that the BBC has some really good election maps I can play around with in the hours between declarations.

Another victim of map fetishism.

For those interested, here's an introduction called Scotland for Dummies Tongue, a funny clip created by The Guardian, that famously liberal newspaper: http://www.nrk.no/verden/skottland-for-dummies-1.11940063

FWIW, the betting odds are somewhere around No being a five to one favorite.  Betting still going on on the online betting sites.

The no side is now even more of a favorite in on-line betting, somewhere around 8 to one. Not sure if this means anything

Stornoway airport is apparently closed due to bad weather.  This will delay the Eilean Siar/Western Isles declaration.

For what it's worth, the odds for Scottish independence were just raised considerably by several betting firms.

Probably in reaction to the YouGov poll

Unless we now why, that's pretty uninteresting.
