The Collections merit badge requires a Scout to show their collection. Some Scouts left their collections at home. So they had their family either: e-mail them a picture to their cell phone, e-mail a picture to Craig or even fax a picture in. Its a new era of interconnectedness. Although, more than one person commented that they did not see the kids ‘two-thumbing it’ almost at all. They were too busy doing things to be spending time texting. What does that say about school and after school where the kids are sending 100s of texts a day?
