Not as an individual, but, yes I did. When I left the WT movement in the mid 80s I soon discovered that others had left also - but for seperate reasons. Most of us were old fogeys like myself and it took us awhile to get our act together, because we felt there was something we could do together. We started by advertising a phone message in the local paper, where an interested person could hear a brief 3 minute "talk" and we left them open to contact us if they wanted to. We pledged to uphold total annonimity. Some actually responded. We also started an evening meeting once a week where we would go through the "Paradise" book. Oddly enough, as word got around we began to get people to these meetings whose kids or spouses were locked into the movement and who wanted to know more about the group. It got to the point where we were averaging some 40 people to these meetings from all walks of life. I tell you, it was exhilarating and great fun while it lasted
Cheers
