    Elder Packer says "scabies."

    I'll have to search that in the database and see if that's the first time that word has ever been used in General Conference.

    EDIT: Looks like Elder Packer said scabies in 2002 as well according to http://corpus.byu.edu/gc/

            @mckaycoppins will be tweeting from GC, for those who want to follow him.

                                    Elder Koelliker was my bishop when I was a priest, sent me on my mission, and welcomed me home. He was 28 when called. Everyone who was in our group of young men loves and reveres him. Great man, the kindest man I've ever known.

                                        You are taking us too seriously. I rarely miss a session, but I will admit to multi-tasking (like right now!).
