    Ha ha. The average hours is down to 9.3 for pub and 61! for reg pioneers. I thought pioneers did it for the LOVE of service - wonder why the hours have dropped so much when they went to the 70 hour requirement. Wonder how many 'pioneers' they'd have if it was still 100 a month!

    You gotta love the October 15th one - Are you obedient & are you using the Watchtower & Awake magazines wisely?

    Well, we live in he mountains in W Virginnia, and I can assure you that the WT and Awake are being put to maximum use. We are the old timey types and we have five rooms and path at our house. So like I said, the WTs and ags doing a grand job. And they're soooo much better than corn shucks.

    Hi El Kabong
    It really doesn't matter if you agree with me or not. We will all have to learn how to handle differences of opinion, without as a rule trying to make the "oponent" say something he didn't, or try to twist others words.

    If everyone agreed with anything, I would kill myself. I would have preffered that to boring myself slowly to death!

    I am honestly trying to publish facts, and to check my sources as good as I possibly can. Naturally, I make errors as anyone else, and if I unintentionally hurt someone, I'm not too proud to apologize. If I publish anything on the Observer which is in error (which honestly isn't that often)- I will remove it immedeately. If many have seen it, I will publish a message explaining what happened.

    It's a lot of work, yes. But I know many people are helped by these efforts done by many people online. The Watchtower Observer is one site, Osarsif, Randy, Silentlambs and others are doing a HUGE job, and investing so many hours in this nobody will believe it if we told them.

    I guess I personally have spent an average of 4 hours every day for 8 years or so to keep things running!

    So, I am grateful when someone tells me the worke payed off the way it was intended - helping some people!

    Thanks, my friend.

    PS: Please keep KMs coming my way!!!!

    Oh cool! The one with the school schedule for the year!

    Thanks...I like to know what is going on without actually going or probing my mom with a lot of questions. Every time I do it just makers her think I am going to go back, and breaks her heart every time she realizes that I am a curious observer, no longer a devote witness.

    eyebrow, same here. I like to surprise them with information that they think I shouldn't know. they haven't mentioned the new School book and program and I can't wait to knock them over the head with it.

    when I can quote stuff directly, it helps my credibility.

    NameWitheld: I don't know if the hours are lower because of the change in pio requirements or because it's July's report. Time is counted by service year; July and August are when pios slack off.
