Hey, I have no idea man. Sheesh, I just discovered this a few days ago! Lol.

I would certainly be interested in seeing it if there IS evidence of a connection.

Any connection between SDA and Mormonism is not going to be on a doctrional level. they are too different and the SDA's are not trying to be so different. they are trying to appeal to mainstreem christianity Mormonism is not.

It will be on an instutional and Administrative level. where did james and ellen get there leadership ideas After Rochester they emerged as a powerful force and were never relinquished the power again. They were able to survive a split and crush any rebellion that stood in there way. where did this come from if it was not divine.

If I understand you correctly you mean there would be similarities in the way that they dealt with dissidents?

the new information that I have says that there were visions and dreams and stuff. I am waiting to see what the information is before i judge the validity of it. I found it intresting that someone else saw the possible connection and decided it was not worthy enough to write a book on it.
