<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mac266, post: 2467782, member: 26371&quot;]I&#039;ve been meeting with a group of Boy Scouts to help them earn the Coin Collecting merit badge.&nbsp; I even made a huge power point presentation with pictures of things I could not show them from my own collection (some of you have early copies of this presentation; however, it has become so large I can no longer email it).&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>At first, I assumed the majority of Scouts were going to be there simply to add an easy merit badge to their sashes, but not take any interest in pursuing the hobby.&nbsp; It didn&#039;t bother me.&nbsp; The purpose of merit badges is to &quot;introduce Scouts to vocations, avocations, and hobbies,&quot; not to brainwash them into liking the same things we like.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>To my surprise, last night, at our third meeting, I realized that four of the eight Scouts&nbsp; are taking up the hobby![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
