    As far as know, it means they refer to the same reference as the one directly above that. Means, the same, idem.

    The publication most recently mentioned. For example you might see something like this in a list of references.

    1. Dover, Eileen, How I Fell Off a Cliff, 39

    2. Ibid., 45

    The first reference is to page 39 of the book mentioned, the second to page 45 of the same book.

    Funny JT,

    My very first post on this board was the same question you had. Find it here.

    The most funny part is that I asked the elders at the time this question and it took them 3 months to get back at me (in the mean time i knew through this board).

    Hilarious!

    and we got and answer back in just a few min. but don't be too hard on the elders, keep in mind they are "Cheese and Cracker Men"

    Funky,

    I liked your reference "How I fell off a Cliff...."

    Makes me want to add..........."and Landed At The Top" The true story of an X JW.
