Just FYI
When I was driving to work, I saw a car with the license plate KAPPAMN but was driven by a woman (the owner's wife or mother--I dunno). Just wanted to share that.
Anyhow, on usage of the letters, I well tell you upfront that I don't get overly picky about nonmembers using my letters as long as they don't plan to perp. My mother wore my shirt once (and it was on her driver's license photo until it was renewed). I loaned a lady friend my cardigan with the letters on it b/c she was cold.
Anyway, my point is this: All too often Greeks protect their letters to the point of foolish pride. Meaning that if using an item like an umbrella or a car with letters on them would pose a detriment to a non-greek (would get wet in the rain, can't use to car to race to the hospital to check on a dying friend or relative), then IMHO you are not protecting your letters, you are idolizing them. Please put principle over pride, and if your letters mean that much to you, please don't allow them to be placed on items were they could be "compromised", or leave nalia where others can get access to it.
My .25 cents.
