    Young Milton was the Prez up until October 2000, when the Borg was reorganised, a new corporation was named, and it was announced that Don Adams (NOT the actor) was now the President of the WTS.

    They probably decided in 2000 that a man who couldnt eat his own breakfast porridge without drooling it all over his chin was probably a bit past being spiritual director of 6, 000, 000 people.

    Refiners fine, I don't know if that was just a joke or if you meant it to hit - but Henschel was severely ill for many years with Parkinson's desease. I don't know about you, but as for me, I try not to make jokes about other people's illness or dysfunctions. The Pope doesn't look too well, and I by all means can be mighty mean when it comes to the Catholic Church and the Pope's role in it, but I don't make jokes about him as an old man. Old age and illness come to all of us, and I wouldn't like others to laugh at my situation, and therefore do not laugh at others.

    Does anyone have a news article, etc. to substantiate old Miltie's death? Looks like the WTS has done a good job of keeping it quite. My husband and his parents are JW's and they have heard nothing, even though there was a meeting last night. I checked the New York Times for an obituary - nothing. I would LOVE to see this in print! Please respond ASAP!!!
