Thread Name: BS: Old Pocket Watches
Subject: RE: BS: Old Pocket Watches
The Hutterites are the predominant Anabaptist group here. We have friends that are members of one of the colonies. They have the best in farm machinery, computer-controlled animal houses, homes with the latest in heating (underfloor circulating fluid), and the latest trucks and 'taxi' service to the City for medical services, etc.

They are good mechanics and wood-workers, make their own clothes, have a communal kitchen and mess hall and refuse television, movies and all that stuff (they sneak off to non-Hutterite farms to partake of these sins).

Don't give a damn about watches, however. Timex is the usual.
