Well, love is not always the answer, but, respect is! My point is that some 
things should be taken care of in chapter meetings annd some in our state 
affiliate. Small thuings such as missing meetings or paying dues are small 
issues. If you run away with your chapters treasury or are trying to promot 
an idea that your chapter has come up with, then by all means put it up on 
this list! I don't care if someone doesn't wear a clean shirt or pay the 
dues they owe! Well, maybe a little but the main issue is to unite and help 
make the changes we want!
