Well, here is a door I wish I would have gotten when I was a JW.

Or if you want to go to the original article that Boing Boing points to...

Though the article states there were 3 JWs on the initial visit, I have a hard time picturing it.

Spectre

The only bit of personal information I saw, Ozziepost, is the name of a famous artist and the town that he lives in.

I thought it was an interesting read. Especially the the comment section.

Sorry to have invaded privacy.
I didn't mean to.

Dang. Can we at least get a synopsis? I'm intrigued...

Just google "Dinotopia artist sketches Jehovah's Witnesses" and it'll come right up.

Here's the original blog post: http://gurneyjourney.blogspot.com/2008/05/unexpected-visitors.html

Clearly no invasion of privacy involved here.

And further supplementary links, none of which appear in any way to violate the direct rules of this site, or netiquette or law in general:

Ozzi,

A little quick with the fingers on the key board these days aye mate. Must be a little bored to knit pick that one...oppps.

ozziepost

Not at all 'nit picking' - the thread was introduced without any background that permission had been granted. We can only go by what we are given.

Again, publishing an image of someone without their permission contravenes privacy law etc etc.

If it's established that permission was granted, as appears now the case, then that's fine.

An extra 30 seconds of research would have saved the manufactured controversy Ozzie. Probably about the same amount of time it took to edit out the links.

Sheesh.
