  what's happened to the post formatting since the days when i posted here frequently.

  i'll start new lines but when it posts everything is all jammed together in one run-on paragraph.

  also, the font seems different.

  I'm now in IE and all is well. I didn't have a tool bar in Firefox. I was trying to remember how to quote and add pics etc...I was thinking, "I don't remember it being this sparse..." lol

  Ahh, thanks much! I used IE back then and Firefox now. I'll check the "Automatic Cr/Lf" box and see if that helps.
  
  Thanks again!

  But more equipment was needed. For that reason Brother Balzereit asked Brother Rutherford for permission to buy a rotary press. Brother Rutherford saw the necessity and agreed, but on one condition. He had noticed that over the years Brother Balzereit had grown a beard very similar to the one that had been worn by Brother Russell. His example soon caught on, for there were others who also wanted to look like Brother Russell. This could give rise to a tendency toward creature worship, and Brother Rutherford wanted to prevent this. So during his next visit, within hearing of all the Bible House family, he told Brother Balzereit that he could buy the rotary press but only on the condition that he shave off his beard. Brother Balzereit sadly agreed and afterward went to the barber. During the next few days there were several cases of mistaken identity and some funny situations because of the “stranger” who was sometimes not recognized by his fellow workers.

  if it were not for all of the very hard work that simon does behind the scenes to keep this forum up, much of the other work others are doing could never have happened.. this site serves as an excellent central location for us all to communicate and exchange thoughts and ideas about how to expose the evil ways of the wts.. simon, thank you very much!

  Your sister was clearly jealous that she didn't get to wear the pointy black hat and ride the broom. Besides, you're so much prettier than she is...

  Just got back online and haven't finished Farkel's rather long thread but thank you for the references Lady Lee. That's what I wanted to see...first hand documentation. Greendawn, yes I agree, his drinking seems to be an uncontested fact. At least he was doing something right! BTW, is Malcolm still alive?
