A couple questions from one who has been out of the loop for decades:

1. So at least in 1970 was teaching RS1 seen to be the only job (main job?) of the Order?

2. Was a decision made at some point to no longer see RS1 as the only job (main job) of the Order? When would this have been and for what reason?

3. When was the last RS1 taught? What replaced it and why was that?

4. Are there some of you on this list or the other one that have never taken RS1?

5. Do others feel that "What the world needs now is more RS1?"

Thanks for any reflections,

Bud
