GC Rules of Thumb

Can't take the sarcasm you predicted?

As you note, the poster said "Multicultural Greek Council." It's not that far of a stretch to "National Multicultural Greek Council." Latino is a completely different direction though.

The real GC Rule of Thumb here is make yourself clear and make clear what you are responding to. Here's the exchange:

Apparently, you were really responding to DeltaBetaBaby's "and I think I am missing a 4th council," but since you just quoted notmanhattan's "Multicultural Greek Council," it looked like you were saying "No, it's not called the Multicultural Greek Council, because there is no such organization on a national level. The national organization is called NALFO." It read like you were the one mixing up NMGC and NALFO.

And sorry, but "the poster said Multicultural Greek Council, not NATIONAL" is what most people would call a lame distinction without a difference.

Sorry, but I just love pissing matches too much, and I don't like to loose them.
