At least in Lewis Gaelic still prevails. Here sadly the game is up and it has gone in a generation. My wife's grandmother could barely speak English, now I am not defending that but the norm now is if one person does not have the gaelic everyone speaks english "out of respect." It has killed the language.

we know quite a few gaelic speakers in Skye - going to belladrum with a squad from your island next weekend infact. Sabhal Mor surely makes a difference?....they're mostly from Borve and Bernisadale iirc but gaelic is in all 3 generations of that lot. I suppose I may have a skewed picture as my wife know most of them through her time at the college but i'd not thought it as bad as the way you describe it.....
