YOU are reading FAR too much into that. I in NO way see it as saying, or
even implying, the Clerks Time is Worthless. And when one looks at the time
waiting for the dial up connection compared to the REAL time we to put in as
Clerks it is a pretty Small portion.
And the answer is RIGHT on. In order of REAL places needed most for the
Church to put the Lords Money I do NOT even think Broadband is even worth
considering for those buildings without an FHC.
