text: If AL was having an actual impact on the parishes, then Jenny Normal who is wondering about how her previous marriage may affect her wedding plans might mention it and people wouldn't still be griping about the annulment process.  I wish AL was having a bigger impact on the ground level but that doesn't appear to be the case.  The only talk about it is from conservative Catholics who are spending an inordinate amount of time obsessing over some hypothetical situation.  There are very few concrete examples of it helping real people.
