  Evidently you encountered some people who suffer from Dubnesia.

  I remember one Elder who was assigned to do the "review of the DC" bit on the Service Meeting honestly telling me he could not remember a single thing from the DC, just like me.

  What to do ? he asked a sister known for taking copious notes if he could borrow them for a couple of days, which she did (sucker), and he did a good job of fooling his fellow Elders that he had actually listened.

  Dubnesia , that is spot on !, it arises from not being able to listen with interest to the droning guys on the platform.

  I went to the convention in May, I have the DVD, my family has watched it, they wouldn't know the name Sparlock if I hadn't kept making jokes about it and insisted they see how it is already spoofed on Youtube. Just so they don't forget I find opportunities to throw his name in from time to time.

  Approximately 1/2 of JWs will just throw the DVD in a drawer and not look at it until a service meeting Q&A part comes up on it next year.

  The other half will just blip right over the name "Sparlock". It won't even register unless someone draws their attention to it.
