Many years ago, when it was clear I was no longer interested in being a JW, a couple of elders called and asked to come over for a shepherding call. I said they were always welcome as long-time friends, but NOT as elders. They were welcome to drop by, but nothing JW-related would be discussed. Crickets...

Exes: Would You Rat On A Current JW?
by NotFormer init's an interesting thought.
if you are an ex jw, presumably dfed, and you see a current jw in good standing engaging in behaviour that would concern their elders, would you pass on that information to interested parties?
do accusations from exes and other outsiders carry any weight?

I'm with Simon on this one. I have no desire to contact anyone in the Borg about anything. I sure ain't gonna spy for them.
However, if I had personal knowledge of JW mooching off welfare or milking a "disability" or the like so they could pioneer or whatever, I'd report them to the government in a heartbeat. The more reproach it brings on J-dawg's name, the better.
To me, that kind of thing is far more egregious than consenting adults indulging in the horizontal tango.

Has Rutherford's 16-cylinder Cadillac been found?

There are several threads on here about Rutherford and his Cadillacs. I just searched for "Cadillac" and several came up. Lots of good information.
I hope someone eventually finds records with the Cadillacs' serial numbers, order information, etc. I've been told cars weren't issued VIN numbers until the 50s, but I would think the bodies and engines had serial numbers. Maybe some insider could check the historical files hidden away at Warwick or wherever. I seriously doubt the Borg would have destroyed those records.

I made a public comment about its possible provenance on the video and sent a similar email to the car museum itself. I'll let y'all know if I hear anything back.

Can we please keep this about the car(s) and not about Rutherford? I'm interested to see if it had indeed once belonged to him only from an automotive and historical standpoint. Yes, he had many, many faults, but this post isn't about that.

Thanks, HappyDad! My ignorance is exposed! I thought cars and trucks had had VIN numbers from the very beginning. Did they have any other kind of identifying numbers that could be used to research historical ownership and/or manufacturers' records?

If any of you WT history buffs happen to know the VIN number of Rutherford's Cadillac(s), please share it. I understand he had two. VIN numbers would make it a lot easier to track them down, or at least it would give a researcher a shot at it.

Watch the episode and let us know what you think. Either way, it's a very cool car. I'd love to see it in person one day. Oh well, maybe the next time I'm in California.

So sorry you had to go through all that, especially alone. But I'm very glad the outcome was so good. Despite it all, you were fortunate they caught things when they did. Here's hoping you don't have to go through anything like that again. We're all pulling for you.

Wow! Is this the way JWs count time now, by sending out text messages? Hmmm...
