So maybe they don't have a genuine "public" meeting anymore?

the announcement will be on sunday, so everybody will hear it on the same day. the service mtg used to be on thursday for everybody until started sharing halls, now you can go to the hall almost any night of the week in big cities and have a service mtg. i know around here there is one on tues, wed, and thurs. and a spanish one on the other weekdays... sooooooo if they tell someone on monday, it will spread like gossip and rumor until the others get to hear later in the week... similar to an announcement of a new publication(or cd, i forget) that was made on sunday also if i remember correctly. me
