Uniform Disputes...

[JM_Ecuador]

I believe that Eamonn has made a very good point. Whatever the uniform is, we must use it.

The answer for dealing with something on which we disagree is not to disregard the rules, rather to encourage those who make them to change the rules.

That is, rather than decide what we want to be the uniform, and ignore the national standard, we should use the unifrom, but also let people who have the power to make a diference know our feelings on the matter.

However, I also think that for non-formal events, such as regular meetings, campouts, etc, the rules should be a bit flexible. My standard would be that the participants be wearing a necker, but then I hear that that's the least popular item in the US.
