7 members left. 4 are needed for a 2/3 vote.
I think they would need 5 for a 2/3 vote. 4 would only give them 57%.

When was the last 7-Day Convention held?
by VM44 indoes anyone know when the watchtower held the last 7-day convention?.
these conventions lasted from 9am to 9pm every day for a whole week, except perhaps for sunday.. they were mostly held in open-air stadiums and people had to endure the burning heat during the day, and the cold at night.. it took endurance to sit throughout the whole thing.. making people attend those things really was an expression of love from the watchtower!
did the watchtower drop right away to the 3-day program, or were 5 day conventions held for awhile?.

1969...... my sister was a toddler and Mom had her on a leash.
That brings back a memory. My son was two years old, and I also had a leash. Without it, I would have lost him for sure. He had a way of slipping away. He loved the leash when he was home, but hated it at the assembly. Thankfully, he hates assemblies to this day.

Atlanta, Georgia, in 1969 for me. A week of stifling heat and droning talks. Finally Clyde said he'd had enough and we missed the last day and drove up into the mountains of North Carolina.

Diamondiiz - I agree. I've heard that gold could hit $5,000 in the near future. Maybe that's why so many people want to buy your gold.

Sisters no allowed in KH period!
by life is to short ini just found out during the elders school sisters are not allowed in the kh for any reason.
i have a girlfriend that i became really close to when i was at bethel.
we really were as close as real sisters, in fact i am still closer to her then my own flesh and blood jw sister but with my leaving the jw's it has been hard, she does not have a clue about my true feelings of this cult, i have tried to throw points out to her and she will not get them, she will not let her mind go there.. .

That might be because they don't want the sisters to see the secret elder's manual.

JW sister tells me about 1975- amnesia strikes again!
by moshe inshe came in the jw world in 1966 with her mother- she was 6 years old.
she graduated from high school in 1976. during the 90 minutes i spent with her yesterday, she mentioned that the org never said the end was coming in 1975-" it was just a few who said that and they all left after 1976- which was good- because jah needed to cleanse the kh of all who were serving with just a date in mind.. i asked her, "don't you remember the assembly talk from 1969 or 1970, where the speaker said, "stay alive until 75"- no she didn't remember.. i explained that our kh had a co tell us from the platform," brothers there is only 18 months left until armageddon- wow, she exclaimed.. i continued my story, "the po's 16 year old son quit school in 1974- to become a regular pioneer- he was held up as a fine example in the cong- and used as an example at a circuit assembly that year of someone who putting jehovah's work first.
didn't you have some who quit school to pioneer back then?".

Those "few" were DO's, CO's, and elders. Here are a couple of the answers I've gotten over the years regarding 1975:
Father: Sister D was telling everybody Armageddon was coming in 1975. It was her fault.
Brother: The Society hinted once that it could be 1975, and then the news media got ahold of it and blew it out of proportion.
Son-in-law: Our family came into the truth in 1975 and never heard anything about it (they were getting cold feet by then).
Daughter: It never happened.
