    Anyone else hear the rumor that they are beginning to sell some of the residence buildings in Brooklyn? I heard from a reliable source that 2 of the residence bldgs are on the market now or will be very soon. Also was told that they plan to "layoff" 1000+ in Brooklyn Bethel by years end. More emphasis on the ministry it seems as many are being asked to go to a particular place and pioneer.

    So how much cash did the WTBS actually pocket, after the sale of 360 Furman? Will they pay taxes on this amount, or still feign being a non-profit organization?
