    Hello,

    here in Switzerland, Geneva, (short part of the country where the people speak french) we can buy "à la maison de la Bible" Bible store and Bible society, a special edition Segond21 in french, with a soft cover paperback for usd 2.00 it's realy cheap. And it appears that this bible society sell more items in one year as usual.

    I see that they have also saved the cost of the brackets they used to have around the word "other" several times in Colossians 1.

    Strange, I was walking to my car after work one day a few months ago and came across a stash that a homeless person had left. There were three of these paperback new world translations, they had been out in the rain and were sopping wet. I hesitated about what to do, you really don't want to take the comfort away from someone that is that destitute, but then I thought about the fact that they prey on the most vulnerable of people, and I picked them up and tossed them out. I wondered at the time how long they had been out in paperback, they looked pretty cheap

    Not to change the subject but I realized that you can get the NWT online, and read it very efficiently with an iPhone.

    No Apologies brought up a point that got me thinking sense there are outfits that will snazzy up your books. May be that is some sort of way to get more money out of the public. You know like if you sign up for something that is free on the web you end up having to buy something else? The word free is a lure to trap you.

    In the bible times they had no bibles. The scriptures where written on scrolls, and kept @ one place.

    You never heard of Jesus or the disciples carrying books?
