    So I am curious. What was the general feeling like at the convention? Lots of applause? Excitement? Boring, dull, lackluster? Or somewhere in between?

    Thank you for the update and details!

    Do you have access to a scanner?

    What color are the badges this year?

    If not would you be willing to type out the table of contents on both brochure and book?

    Only 135 songs? Only 42 of them new? I guess they are trying to make things even more monotonous than they already are for the witlesses.

    After many hours of debate the Watchtower org., the Governing Body finally approved the new songbook. The organization believes this may be a useful tool in keeping their young ones singing.
