	     Now Marion, that would be a new take.  Can you imagine a mission
	     with
	     attatched linguist putting up a sign on that big new church in a
	     village
	     which just divided over the issue, posting all the things that
	     were about to
	     happen to their culture like the neutron bomb effect?

	     "Hi, I am from the mission, I am here to make you like me and
	     destroy you
	     culture which has you bound in darkness and bondage."

	     (no this wasn't a conversation in a back alley in USA)

	     But hey, if they had the guts to do that, I would have to offer
	     them some
	     kind of credit.

	     Matthew
