Okay, I made a grammatical no no.  You misinterpreted it.  Fine.
Let's just drop it at that.  Okay?  :-)

If you get flamed for being pro-Scouting, I think the flamers are
whacked in the head.

Good point.  The ideals of the BSA, IMHO, are the best in the
world.  I guess that's why APO adopted them for their own.  I
never want those ideals to go away.  We must continue to teach
them to everyone that we can.  I've lived my life around those
ideals, and they have kept me out of trouble, kept me in school,
kept me working, and kept me volunteering for good causes.
Without them, I would've never had a good focus in life.

Sincerely yours in Leadership, Friendship, & Service,
Jeremy Gagliardi
