As a matter of fact, they have their own Presiding Bishop.

It tells us a lot about how they perceive themselves.

(OCICBW, my memory isn't perfect). I wonder if the good bishop of Pittsburgh has simply gathered together enough constituents simply to get himself a primacy, only to watch the whole thing come apart all over again.<BR/><BR/>Jeffri<BR/><BR/>P.S.
