The only reason Geeky Penguin brought up Phi Beta Kappa was (I assume, since I was thinking the same thing) to point out the irony of you saying "WGLOs stole our stepping", when your founders "stole" a great deal of their ritual and org structure from existing (W)GLOs, who in turn "stole" them from earlier GLOs and so on all the way back to Phi Beta Kappa. And PBK "stole" it from the Masons, who "stole" it from the renaissance era societies in Europe, etc., etc.
Irony. Hypocrisy. Whatever you want to call it. I think you knew exactly what she was saying in the first place, but I guess it's easier for you to deflect the question with rhetoric than it is to give her an honest answer to her very reasonable question.
