I'll say it again ... INVESTMENT!!

If an activity is to have value it must have INVESTMENT.

Whether it be Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Little League coach, Soccer MOM, fishing,
poker playing, or just watching tv. All require INVESTMENT if it is to have value.

If you don't/can't make the INVESTMENT, find something else to become involved with.

It has nothing to do with hazing.

The 'use' is something you just can't understand. The 'use' is a commitment of
time and talent which adds value to the license. The 'use' is investment.

the use is hazing why not just coem out and say that
