As for everything else like dues, conference registration and the like, we are getting there but for some reason seem to have technical challenges year after year... |

I agree with both of you, actually.
I can look back and say honestly that part of the "fun" was the stress of typing it and suddenly being indispensable to my LBs when they learned my family had a typewriter. In fact, I think I typed out at least one of their apps in addition to mine.
But I just mentioned about about hour ago the story of one of my chapter brothers who was "locked out" of the system because someone at HQ typed his social security number incorrectly in the system from his application and it took him months (if not a year, IIRC) to be confirmed as an Alpha after he was reclaimed.
