, 14:35, 8 October 2011→description of meeting: new section
That' what it looked like, but given your confirmation, and short of any other denial, I am going to move 1991-02-01-Ham to General Council to 1992-02-01-Ham to the General Council while noting this exchange in the discussion page of the record. Also, I will then link the reference made in 1992-02-00-Will to the moved record. --rdavis 01:19, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

*Subject: Re: [tml] california conference?
Thanks for clarifying Gerdean! So it was a meeting of the General Council only in which context the Woods Cross group was willing offer the announcement.
In that light, I am surprised the GC even conceded the opportunity for an announcement, but then that was a different moment - as are each!--rdavis 18:35, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

It's not that the Woods Cross group was willing to offer the announcement. Ham had asked to speak to the Urantians. They did NOT concede an opportunity for an announcement. They refused! The Woods Cross group arranged a separate venue ... a room available in an adjacent building, within easy walking distance from where the ... what was it? Triennial Assembly? ... was held. They didn't want any part of it. Resisted it vehemently. However, rumors of this strange teacher was taking the UB movement by storm, like a groundswell that would not be ignored, and so when Thern Blackstone introduced Rebecca as the T/R who would bring through this wonderful new Teacher, the first thing to occur was Nothing! There was a long, long wait. Some of it was to allow Rebecca to calm down; (it was a huge event and how could she not have butterflies?). But part of it too was, according to Ham, (depending on how you choose to interpret his words) ... "All of us are awaiting the greater reception of our words and we are desirous of placing many teachers among you." It seemed to some of us that he was saying "we are awaiting the greater reception of our words" by the UBers ... who were slowly, very slowly, trickling into the hall, clucking and shaking their heads and wringing their hands. Many who attended the general conference did not come to hear Ham. And yet, after Ham spoke, the UBers had a reception for everyone who attended and it seemed (to me at least) that Everyone was talking about Ham, and not about the conference at all. --rdavis 18:35, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
