[9600] in APO-L
I had a flash of inspiration about the Toast song.

Before reading this, I ask you to open your minds. I am going to ask a
large number of brothers to make a sacrafice for the fraternity. Please,
consider it before disgarding it.
If we change the toast song, in 20 years noone will care anymore, and
everyone will still be dedicated to Leadership Friendship and Service
(noone is trying to make us all men again, right?). If we don't change it,
then in 20 years we will still be fighting about it.
It may hurt, and people may be unhappy about changing the traditions, but
lets face it. As long as there are new people coming into the fraternity,
there will always be a large, and active movement to change the toast song.
But, once we change it, it will be over. The old people will be gone (me
too), and we (the brotherhood) can get back on to discussing important
things like where the next turtle ceremony will be. :-)
Or, heaven forbid, a little more service might get done.
