Thanks for sending info on the petition, was glad to sign it. Had no idea it was getting bad to get these records, guess I'm not there yet. I did see one statement in it that may need clarifying. Ordering films through the Mormon church does not support the church. The fee charged covers postage, not the man-hours required to read the order, pull the film (or in some cases, make a new film), box it, mail it etc. So the more films you order through the local library, the more it will "cost" the Mormons, which they don't mind, they're glad to help others of any faith.
