PORTLAND, OR (June 22, 2007) – In a light-hearted introduction to his annual report, President Glenn Palmberg lived up to his acknowledged and well-deserved reputation as a \u201ctechnological Luddite.\u201d
\n
\n\"Palmberg\"The president had the audience laughing as he introduced his annual president\u2019s report while fiddling with his laptop computer, located to his right near the podium.<\/p>\n

The president said he has come a long way since two years ago, when he needed someone to push the button on the laptop to run his PowerPoint presentation. Then, as one slide appeared that had numbers that gradually appeared on a chart, Palmberg said with amazement, \u201cHow\u2019d I do that? Look at that!\u201d<\/p>\n

When he told the gathering that the denomination\u2019s website has 1.5 million individual files accessed each month, he commented to a chuckling audience, \u201cI don\u2019t know what an individual file is, but that\u2019s an awful lot of them!\u201d<\/p>\n

As he introduced another chart that was slow in loading, he quipped, \u201cIt\u2019s not very interesting yet.\u201d<\/p>\n
