I read the letter ... neither does it disprove any statement.
The supposition that it is two days instead of three days needs proof.
In the absence of proof, the fair assumption is that it stays the same, whether that be three days, or thirty three days, etc.

What about this title for an assembly. ' How to avoid the temptation to use tights pants'
Maybe a new pamphlet with a warning message to all nation's ' Stop wearing tight pants before it's to late' 
Young people ask subject. ' Would Jesus have use tight pants?' They could turn it into a family studying subject.
I'm gonna send my ideas to the GB. Hopefully someone of the members gonna like my ideas and support this? I bet one of them is sound of mind and reasonable.

As Sherlock Holmes used to say "The Game is afoot!!"
Remember the ending scene of the classic movie, available on Youtube, "Bambi Meets Godzilla"?

After all, God only listens to those who can get through the door, and that door being, the Christ, for no one can go to the Father, but rather, only through the Son they can reach out to the Father.
It's like someone trying to get past a bouncer in a club, once that someone knows he or she cannot get inside, the next day they will make up all kinds of stories as if they actually got inside for the event and or party.
In that sense, someone probably assumes they talked with God and or God talk to them and try to show off in some sense when in reality, that person didn't even bother to knock on said door.
But Lord, there are some crazies out there who are extremely insane, demon possessed, and will say God made me to do this, or that. But Jesus just told me to do this, and or that, I did it for Jesus, and said action they did is both disturbing and insane.
Because of these guys, they make actual true Christians look like crazy people and make such ones the big joke on the round-table.
When I see crazy Christians and or New Age believers, oh and the Spiritualists, my only reaction to their claims and actions, their  nutcasery:

 

Isn't it interesting if we tell someone that we were talking to God, more than likely we will be perceived as righteously inclined ... whereas if we tell someone that God speaks to us ..... we will be perceived as bat crap crazy?

... an iPhone is in fact a true miracle .... not from God, but because it took 6,000 years of progress to make one.
... BUT ... just because it did not come from God, NEITHER would it be reasonable to say it came from the Devil.
The same is true with the Pyramids, and sticks and staffs into something resembling or actually snakes.
That's why I go with the theory that SOME Egyptians could manipulate contemporrary physics outside of what we know how to do today ... and today ... we can do a LOT.
We unfortunately can even create make a delivered hydrogen fueled mini-star over a city, to incinerate it.
It's called a Hydrogen Bomb.

A scarcity of money, time, and education is generally a major obstacle to quality Bible translation, as has been observed. But I think the organization, largely because it is organized (and dedicated, and stresses self-sacrifice) has gotten around all three of them.
On education, when we find an expert, he trains 100 others. When the world finds an expert, he competes with other experts. If he trains them, it is at a significant fee which works, along with other factors, such as a for-profit distribution channel, to price the final product out of reach of the common people it is hoped to benefit. Our people produce a straight-forward master text in English. All the translators are schooled in translation techniques. They are all encouraged to ask questions about specific problems or verses, and when they do, the answers become part of a database accessible to all.
Regarding 'free,' it isn't really free, since our people may get room and board. If they're in full-time service, as I think most/all of them are, they receive a small monthly stipend. It's not as though they must log their regular workday at the factory, and then translate an hour or two after dinner. 'Generous' or 'Efficient' or 'Whole-souled' are better descriptive words than free.
Regarding time, I'm not sure that is a factor. There are no deadlines that I am aware of. They get to it when they get to it. If they find  they need more time, they are granted it.
However, I don't want to quibble over these things. Maybe there is a better way to do it. But what is typical is the remark heard at the weekly meetings this week - the Nepalese man expressing appreciation for the NWT in his language. In English there are many readable translations, the NWT is not the only one. But nobody cares about the Nepalese because they do not have any money. Thus they are stuck with some 200 year old turkey of a translation that they can't understand, until the NWT comes along. That situation is repeated in many lands.

I felt very sorry for the duck that was about to be taped.

BINGO!

Of course ... every Iranian Kingdom Hall is in a water Park, as shown in the photo.
.... makes baptisms very convenient ... AND ... ( AND! ),  when you baptize twenty-eight year olds, it is very efficient, as with the sliding  boards as shown in the photo,  you can do twenty at a time.
(... sets kitchen egg timer for six minutes .... )

This new wt sure looks like a "letter of solicitation" according to the definition. I wonder if this is the reason why the publication has been suspended (no more printed books and such).  Is this a way the wt can still be correct according to their own statement????

Iranian kingdom halls?
 

I checked ... they are being rotated on a brimstone rotisserie.

Could be worse .... when women are substituting for men in a church, instead of a head covering, they COULD have to wear Ronald McDonald shoes.
Guess which Sister is the Substitute Congregation Coordinator?

It is "generally"  considered that if a man has sex with a young teenage girl, it is a crime worthy of considerable punishment and he gets a kick in the teeth... but if a woman has sex with a young teenage boy, he is "lucky", and he gets a grin, raised eybrows,  and a jealous  elbow in the ribs.

so after all.... there is a life after death :)))))

I have figured out how to do it and I’ve taught them all.

It's been in the works for some time. You name and device tops every list.

Good you can edit out those certain pages of the Sears online catalog, (the ones with the bra's and what not).
 

They can see the names of the devices connected to the WiFi, but there is a specific process and your permission in order to see your browsing history. Its a lot harder to do with tablets.

Donald Trump is a man just like me, he's a billionaire and I'm not, how is that fair? (tongue in check, not being serious).

Probably the nature of the test might give a clue?
