  So the WT's on the library started in 1950 but Awakes not till 1970. Is this one article the reason? They really tried to bury that?

  The same thought occurred to me when I was trying to confirm this quote for myself. I thought, "How convenient!"

  Here's a video for more concrete confirmation that this was actually said. (I had a little fun with it.)

  Are there any available on ebay or other sites?

  I don't know. I'm not getting rid of this until my wife is completely awake. I may need it to help her one of these days.

  Yeah, our congregation didn't send a lump sum, we are sending monthly stipends - any surplus is staying in our accounts. In fact, every time the account starts getting a little fat where there might be some questions from the CO, we update certain things like the Wifi network, Sound equipment, etc. We send in about $1,100 a month to WT. We still collect around $3,000/month.

  We just spent about $2,500 on new Wifi equipment to handle the iDevices like 2 months ago. We also are going to spend around $15,000 on a really nice utility shed with masonry and everything. Of course, all these projects are passed by resolution.

  Maybe our elders have a spirit of independence. Or it could be that all this is technically OK even with the new direction from the Branch.
