Well you need to go figure it out so I can figure out who to boo and how severely.

Pretty much.
And just so folks understand, this is not about BGLOs "owning the rights" to stepping as much as its about disappointment that the most fundamental community aspect of the art is lost.
I was on a step team in college which was non-Greek. About half of the twenty founding members came from communities where stepping among youth and adolescents was normal. The other half were familiar with it from television. None of us were Greek. We relied on our own experiences, brought our own steps from home, and MADE THEM UP as we went along.
12 years later, they are still doing some of our original steps and have added their own twist on them. Gotten new ones. Retired old ones. And by and large, are a better team now than we ever were.
