Green-Moo , I have to agree with you . I believe they should have to come to us of their own free will and accord , but I don't see the harm in asking a friend if they would like to join if they show interest . A very good friend of mine has been beating around the bush for a year before he finally asked me for a petition last week . I told him it's about time . The only plus is that there is not a rule against my wife asking good men to join . I've had quit a few great guys come into the Fraternity because she told them to ask me for a petition . She knows the kind of men we're looking for and knows not send the riff raff my way .
