    Does anyone have access as to how many Governing Body members there are right now as of January 2008 and their names?

    I understand George Couch recently left for heaven.

    So only 2 have been GB longer then 15 years and lets be honest only one of those two is active. It has been a long time since the GB has been this small and this young.

    That's a fine list of uneducated men who managed to make it to the top of an international organization...pretty impressive.

    all new guys except Jaracz and the one who is so old. That's quite interesting. When Jaracz goes, I wonder who will poison whom to get to the top.

    True, and I also find it interesting, that when TJ dies, there will be no eye-witnesses to the 75-gb-change (apart from Barr).

    I wonder how much the older gb members told the newbees about that time?

    All of the newer members of the Governing Body were either special pioneers or travelling overseers during 1975, so they remember it well.
