Of course that was in 1987, I realize that most organizations probably no longer physically cross burning sands, nor should they (we shouldn't have been doing it either). I just thought that the term sands was reserved for the most intimate of relationships, at least that is how it was in my day.
I was made in '92 in Great Great Lakes and this is how I was taught. I call other people that crossed Spring '92 my psuedo sands.

I had one spec and a few personals. I got persed by people in other organizations as well, and I persed people that crossed after me. Families are big in Michigan across most orgs, but it depends on the chapter.
