Archie; The issue of prefixes is still matter for discussion between the Chapters and the BOD of the Club. I don't happen to agree with someone who uses the Chapter membership number as a means of selling on the chipboard or anywhere else. We 've been down this road before, and I'll handle the matter in the Chapter. In the meantime, while I may or may not agree with the institution of prefixes, I can appreciate from whence you are coming, and I appreciate your suggestion. Take care and have a great Holiday Season.
