Hello, Scouters Of The List!
Michael Caldwell <mikecaldwell@WEBTV.NET> did say,
Subject: YiS
>>"Fellow Scouters, In a lot of post I've read in the past few days, I
see the reference to YiS. I can figure most of the other abrev's. but
this one. New to Scouts-L>>"
Thank Youuuu Michael for asking that question.
As one of the primary advocates for "BLE"(Big Grin)(Better List
Etiquette), I will once again say, That We Have New Faces on Here
Alllllll the Time, Many New to Scouting as Well, We All Need To Be More

Certainly a number of these "SLQ"(Scout Lingo Quickies-a/k/a/(Also Known

us are saying, unless they are pacific, um, specific!
Seasons's Greeting To All!
