so i am a corporate trainer and meet lots of new people every week... i always click w one or two of my students but for the last 2 classes i have clicked with two jws!!!

i did not know they where jws and they have no idea i am da'd... but after i befriended them on fb i realized ohhh ish!!!

OMG!!! I am in the same boat! I am also a corprate trainer and always seem to draw the JWs to me!

I observe and document their actions. I keep this data for my thesis.

It is really fun. Its like looking into a time machine. I see all my former behaviors and realize how far I have come from being a JW.

I will admit I do mess with them. I constaintly throw out little comments and watch their reaction and then log it into my log. I recently purchased some Silent Lambs mugs to drink my coffee out of. This always lets me know a head of time who is a JW and it is fun to watch the JWs in my office look at it while we chat in my office. I think they think it is going to spew demons out at them.

I have gone out of town with a few JWs for work and I have yet to really dig into the real matters of JW deprograming. I don't know if I want to cross that line yet. It is not so much my fear of man but not wanting to hinge the relationship. I like finding out the latest gossip and goings. I do enjoy when they bring up the "truth" or religion in general. It is so funny listening to them and know the "perfect" responses to them to make it a personal experiance at the kingdom hall. I have a running tally of how many times I can get them to talk about me to their elders or in comments at the meeting. So far it's 22 elder conversation, 2 stage experanice (I bet they regerted that when I told them I was DFed) and 15 comments

Good luck with yours. We should start keeping track and compare stories.

Rick is a good guy doing what all of us are doing, being free. For me Rick's site and presentation of information helped me in my joureny. For some it may not be their cup of tea but to others it's not.

Keep up the good Rick and all those helping other people!

Thanks for the feed back. I actually called New York on Friday. According to the service department they would not release this information. I'm am going to try on Monday again.

Greetings to all! I am doing a statistical analysis on the how the United States economy affects on the number of publishers in the organization. I thought that the number of publishers would be in the WT 2010 cd-rom but it says to refer to the individual books or Watchtower. I need the past 50 years of publisher numbers to have a solid statistical breakdown. I’m hoping that a few people with access to these numbers could simply rely to this message and list the year/ publisher for the year/ number of those baptized. Thanks!
