Sounds good, but I will stick with what I said. A local iris society is not a 
charismatic cult but a group of enthusiasts with a common interest. A 
interesting and vital leadership is unquestionably to be preferred to a 
sluggish one, but the membership should not freight the leadership with the 
responsibility for generating the excitement in the group. They should move 
purposefully and enthusiastically toward meeting their individual and chapter 
needs and addressing the AIS mission. Any group that requires constant 
cheerleading or subsists on transfusions of passion and energy from the 
leadership will not have much to offer.
