Sounds good mate! I have to study up!!! Im gonna be respectful but hit em where it hirts if i can..
But i have a question for all of you: If you were in my position, which is ideal as it gets, what would unbring up with the elders while trying to respect them as people youve grown up with, and would you see elders u know or request outside elders you are less familiar with?

First, you and your wife don't have to worry or care about other relatives and family shunning? Be prepared if you DA or DFed for any active JW family, friends, relatives to shun you. As long as you are okay there, then your other questions..
If you request elders you are not really familar with and don't really know you, then they'll probably just throw a "do you believe in the governing body, etc," not really want to talk, and if you say you don't you'll get dfed.
If you request elders who really know you and care about you, then they'll probably talk.
Too much advice I can give without really knowing what you want the final outcome to be. It can really be dragged out and even studying with them to try to go over your doubts and just an inactive status or can be a quick and final df or da.

Ive already realized the final outcome will be DF or Da if i proceed with a meeting...no worries on family. Her mom is out of state and all others are out of the Borg.

as an idea, you could always use the breast pocket of your jacket to hide a camera or recorder, just use a pocket square to cover it up. Make sure to not use the same pattern as on your tie, it's the general rule, unless that's all you have.

Watchtower-free: lol I have one of those pens. It's cool but the led light on it is kinda annoying and obvious.

I recorded a doctor's appointment. I had my android phone in the top of my open satchel, ready to go, and pressed record just before walking into the office. Of course, it was audio, not video. Easy peasy ...

Just walk in with your Bible and your phone. Start recording on your phone before you walk in. Plonk both on the seat next to you or under your chair. It's one of the things nearly everyone carries, no one will think it odd that you have your phone with you . Or forget your Bible and use the jw app for any verses then you HAVE to have your phone with you.
I've recorded using my phone, quality is pretty good..

Hey, hero,,, I hope you know that for us, you are most definitely *not* disposable! I like the originality of your avatar, and get it, but just sayin'. :))
