(I know you aren't following the thread anymore, but I'm going to reply anyways).
Frankly, I find the comparing of recognition between the 2 Grand Lodges in your state to Global Warming, Suez Canal, Kim Kardashian, etc. a little disheartning. You're talking about a discussion in your local lodge. I would think recognition between the 2 Grand Lodges is a little more germaine than keeping up with the kardashians. I will say that in my lodge, in Texas, we have discussions pretty regulary about visitation. Usually its about how we do have the right to visit, but the process is so f'ed up its almost unusable (My lodge has visited a local PH lodge and they have done the same with us - but the process sucks so bad, its amazing that the Grand Lodge of Texas put it in place. Its almost like they would really rather you not visit but threw us a bone). I'm not sure how the grand lodges will ever recognize each other if there isn't a movement from the local lodges...
