I'm a scout! (an Australian one, whatever)
Props on the ...promotion (?)
And yeah, I kinda lost respect for the American Scouts when I heard that they still refuse to accept gays. Shit ain't cool, bro.
It frustrates me that I get flamed for policies that I have no say in. Whether or not the scouting executives discriminate has nothing to do with the amount of work and dedication people put into earning eagle. The rank is basically worthless these days because the only people that respect it are other scouters, who are rather quickly becoming extinct.

I used to be a scout as well. I have a couple of friends who are eagle scouts as well. What are you doing/did you do for your project?
I built about 40 or so steps into a rather dangerous slope on a hiking trail. Not particularly inventive, but still useful.
