i think that it is ridiculous that so many people have responded to this
post and not yet has someone said "WHAT!? that would never happen!"
we are all brothers and if we don't trust each other enough to (a) uphold
the moral standards to which we pledge ourselves at least once each year
and (b) honor the term "brother" with enough courtesy not to steal chapter
funds (and hopefully quite a bit more courtesy than that!) than we're not
doing a very good job of fulfilling our oaths, nor are we "imbued with the
spirit," as it were.
i assume that this particular person was an exception to the rule, and not
vice versa. of course two signatures are necessary on chapter accounts, but
that is usually to prevent overspending of budgeted funds, not extortion!
or at least that's the way i thought it was.
and if all of your officers live in the same room, i think you might
consider branching out, if you will... ;)
