no df-ing, no shunning, no loss of family.

what impact would there be statistically on the organization if those who are now 'just going through the motions' - just left?

is she just an adorable "plant" to get our minds off 9/11 and iraq and w's ineptitude?

is her cuteness a manipulative "ploy" to keep the public hooked on inane "mind pablum" (pun intended)?

is that really her hair, her eyes - or a clever, diabolical composite of tom and katie perpetrated by the bush administration?

When you were a witness, did you ever wonder where the GOOD witnesses were?

i grew up in the borg and can remember feeling a disconnect with the portrayal of witness behavior in the literature and what i actually experienced.

the stories from the yearbook about people wanting to study with witnesses "thirsty for knowledge of the truth" were so different from the responses i got in the fs, where people just seemed annoyed.

the pictures of happy folk and families of all colors looking toward some ray of light, united in the love for jehoober and each other, did not square with what was going on in my congo.
