I have heard anecdotal evidence that Sanderson started partaking when he was young. I know a guy that knows a guy that knows.
edited to add
my source says mark was about 19 when he started partaking

210TV.JW.ORG (September 2015) - Generation explained again
by Designer Stubble inguess the overlapping generation concept is difficult for most to comprehend.
david spane does his best to explain it again.
the cutoff date for this generation has now moved to 1992 (was once 1935), the year that fred franz died.

my 2cents on the reason for keeping tabs on inactive
by poopie ini think there is.
2 schools of thoght on the reasons why they want records on inactive school 1.round this loose ends up we have to many fadeing and getting amnesty we want to keep tabs on them because they have influence on those still active so tighten up no loopholes make them pay for leaving the organization, school2.these are sincerely.
intrested in helping those who hate our guts because we treated them in an unloveing way or they feel your just are a little stupid and let the loveing shepards help you so it is intresting i also think the circuit ovetseers and yes men have hoodwinked the gb into thinking everthing is just dandy in spirtual paradise these reasons why some ate inactive will be eye opening to some of the gb and hopefully they will see people as fellow humans and not stupid little chilldren that need a human master.

I think that vidiot's theory may be correct. The only problem I see with the watchtower cracking down on inactives is that it will drive more back IN. This will be a problem as they will have more active witnesses that are aware of ttatt willing to subvert from the inside. -

the purpose of generation explanation
by poopie inok here is my 2 cents they are getting complaints concerning the drum beat that goes we are in the last hour of last min bla bla bla and people are tired and want system to end so if the system is ended sooon then why are there new partakers assuming that most have the actually calling.
so now we have a problem how do we fix it?
simple just say those new annointed are not part of this generation so now if we appoint younger guys to gb not to worry there not a part of this generation.

They are an end times religion that ran out of time. When 80 years from 1914 came and went and still no great tribulation the numbers didn't add up anymore.
Instead of fessing up and dumping 1914 they had to make up some bullshit cover story about the generation.

I could never figure out the large number of sacrifices either. Where did they put all the guts/ blood and shit? The place must have smelled bad.
The other thing if could not figure was how long did it take to walk to the outside of the camp of Israelites to take a dump? There was supposed to be a few million that left Egypt It would be a long walk if you really had to go bad.

Went to a revival meeting
by hoser inwell it was a circuit assembly but basically the same thing.
imitate jehovah in your family using resources wisely was one of the parts.
they basically said don't buy a new cell phone so you can give more to "jehovah".

The Witnesses, prestigeous & derogatory titles.
by The Rebel inin egland we give " deserving" & " high flyers" titles.. this morning i was thinking i should have named my son president.
i am sure it would have given him a great advantage in latter life.. so my questions:-.
do you think when a publisher becomes a " ministerial servant" or an "elder":-.

There is labelling in the world too. We tend to respect wealth education and family pedigree. Not much different from the jehovahs witnesses.
