    Yeah, it did sound strange to mention another 172-page book or whatever. I think the numbers are to impress the members.
    Remember that the main purpose of these conventions back in the day was to boost sales of these items.

    No clue, other than that the WTBTS has ALWAYS been fascinated by totally pointless numbers... (1874, 1914, 1918, 1925, 1940, 1975, 607 B.C, etc...)
