Hey, beloved brother.
Authority is held in contempt around here......
Best be "upper middle-class" and NOT a target!

Some problems have been solved and several people from those who make things happen have been active again lately. So, the reputation ratings should change accordingly. Hmm... should they?

Instead of a rule of whoever has more time on their hands, we can have a rule of whoever makes things more interesting for the congregation.
