Martin). Yesterday we were linked in a mass emailing from the <em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.whatifwejustsaidwait.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">What If We Just Said Wait<\/a><\/em> folks. Who, I understand, are thinking about their next initiative. It will be interesting to see what that is. And it will be very interesting to see how the implementation goes, since there was no on-site experimentation as the &#8220;What If We Just Said Wait&#8221; petition called for. Msgr. M. Francis Mannion (no liberal, he) wrote in to <em>America<\/em> some years ago to say that much local alterations is the likely result of the introduction of an unpopular Missal. That sounds right. I fear the implementation could be one big chaotic mess.<\/p>\n<p>But this isn&#8217;t a post about that. This is a post about a new\u00a0high in <em>Pray Tell<\/em> vistors. More than 10,000.
