I fully agree. We started our research with a survey to gauge our members attitudes and I was amazed at a lack of education in most of them (myself included).

My will spells out exactly what to do with all of my things. A "funny" (maybe not the correct word to use) thing is a lot people, when asked why they thought the badges ended up being sold, said that relatives didn't know what else to do with them. But the same people, when asked if they had told their family what to do with their badge, answered no.

I also agree that we'll never solve the problem. Badges will always be sold because there will always be someone willing to buy them. I'd like to see them not get to the market in the first place.

One problem we have is getting badges returned from members who deactivate. Most say they don't know where their badge is, and we leave it at that.
