First of all it is International not 'Nationals' (big pet peeve with Canadians). My buckwheat story comes out of a conference held last month in New Hampshire, it was the first time for me to meet Buckwheat, and while he didn't come to our chapter he spoke with such emotion about TKE that one was almost taken aback by it. the fact is that while what was said was consequentially unimportant the voice in which he carried the message was not. TKE is a brother hood which streches across this continent, and which strenghthens relationships across many different borders and bounderies. It made the few Canadians who traveled down to Alpha Nu realize that we were infact part of something larger whether we saw it or not. And i should point out we corrected Buckwheat on the 'nationals' thing as well!
