Thanks, Tresdecu!
SuspiciousMinds:
Still an elder. I have good reasons to stay (not bitter at all). While not trying to make a "change from the inside", I know I can make a difference for those around me. I'm deemed 'liberal' by most; some like it (one of them calls me 'the only voice of reason here'), some frown upon me, especially the old school people. But my ex-co condition keeps them from confronting me.
I will compose my story and eventually post something here.
Sir82:True, but if you try to make a point to a JW form the book, the minute the JW sees a non-elder with that book in his hands, he'll probably run like hell!!!
