    Exactly. As way of example, one of the last questions is always, "what do the numbers one, twenty and sixty-nine mean?" The astute scout usually answers, "why that's today's date." And the response, "that's the date you can say you earned your Eagle rank -congratulations."

    Anyways, congratulations to all you Eagles and all who were scouts and those involved in the scouting program. It's a fun adventure.
