    Hey Uzzah. I got one for you...

    What is the air-speed velocity of an unladen swallow?

    Anxiously awaiting your response.

    Will I find love anytime soon?

    Will my business venture flourish or collapse?

    Who really shot JR?

    Is the moon really made of cheese?

    Regarding the printing aspects of the branch, I have no idea abut current printing volumes. When i was there they had a single Harris 4 colour web for all the magazines and KMs. They had a few small offset presses for smaller run 2-colour printing jobs. I heard they were exp-anding to make room for a second 4-colour web press but never heard what kind.

    Moving the printing to Canada was likely done as a cost savings measure.

    Broken Promises:

    Will I find love anytime soon? Not if you keep asking so many questions

    Will my business venture flourish or collapse? Depends on your commitment and market volaitility

    Will anyone close to me die this year? Unfortunately, the odds are yes we all will have to deal with that.

    Where is that necklace that fell down the sink drain? Umm in the drain

    Who really shot JR? Hated that show

    Is the moon really made of cheese? Sounds gouda to me.

    Will there ever be a remake of Bonanza? Odds are, Hollywood seems to be out of original ideas

    Yet when I said I wanted to leave, they all but drove me to the gate.

    Exactly. Most of us former "prominent elders" had the same experience and found that our exit wasn't met with wailing and gnashing of teeth. The silence was deafening.

    Hi Uzzah,

    Here's one for all Bethelites, since we've got you corraled. That 1984 Watchtower with those 16 elderly Bethelites pictured on the cover -- thanks to help from many, we've got most of them identified. Can you help fill in some blanks. No. 8 is thought to be Aquilla Zook, 1898-1993. Any thoughts? Then how about the Steiman's, chiropractor husband and wife. First names? Any idea where they moved after Bethel? Len.

    Hey there Uzzah, loved this thread, I wish I could think of something original and interesting to ask, but I can't right now except for one little thing. Let's say there was a couple in my old KH that were married to other people...both made to leave Bethel under circumstances that is clear there was some hanky panky. They arrive at my KH newly married and secretive about their "courtship." Eventually it comes out they met at Bethel and left "together." Eventually they are both regular pioneers, elder, etc again within a few years.

    If they had stayed in the NY area, do you think that would have happened? Or was it because they were so far removed from Bethel territory they were given their honors back so fast?
