NeonMadman	Re: Just Re-Read 1984
	In reading this book, I felt as if I were reading a contemporary history of the JWs as they put together their bound volumes and their CDs - both heavily edited, complete with their 18 and 1/2 minutes of missing information - just like Nixon. There is so much information missing from these republications, so much information changed, and some added that was never there in the first place. Their republications are, of course, a hoax. Not sure I know what you're referring to here. The only alteration I'm aware of from original publication to bound volume or CD was the change of "in our twentieth century" to "in our day" in the 1989 Watchtower. Are there other alterations? If so, I'd sure like to know about them. You're right, of course, about 1984 seeming very familiar to those of us who were in the org. I read the book before becoming a JW and again while I was one, and even then was stricken by the resemblances. I guess all totalitairan groups have a lot in common.
