    Hi steve2

    When was the last time GJ was featured in a JW org video or gave an address at a JW convention?

    Exactly, that's the point, when was the last time???.....

    That two-thirds rule though.

    I'm sure they'd just add a new member.

    Thanks darkspilver for repeating my question.

    Now, could we please have a reply from anyone who DOES know the last time GJ was on a JW org video or at a convention giving an address?

    Hi Listener

    Which is very interesting because that was the Day's Text - from FIVE MONTHS ago....

    A word spoken at the right time—how good it is!—Prov. 15:23.

    Which means that Iamallcool, DesirousOfChange and berrygerry's theory may still hold water...

    Hi Vidiot

    "...I'm Geoff 'Postate,

    What's interesting is the time period comparisions with Ray Franz.

    Ray Franz joined the GB in 1971 and left in 1980 - after nine years at which point he was neither amongest the newest to be appointed (a whole bunch were appointed in both 1974 and 1977) and neither amongst the longest serving - he was 'in-the-middle' in terms of length of time on GB.

    Now fast forward to today....

    Geoffrey Jackson, having been appointed in 2005 is likewise 'in-the-middle' having been on the GB for 11 years, he is neither amongst the longest or shortest serving GB member. He hasn't been on the GB for too long, but long enough...

    He was also seen in a video about the new song book shown at the Annual Meeting which was probably recorded fairly recently.

    Oh good grief... this is what we're picking at nowadays? First, these two books are old. 1999 and 2001. Second, both were published prior to Jackson being appointed to the GB. He was appointed in 2005.
