    My wife used to cover the priesthood session when she was a reporter for a Salt Lake TV station. I went with her. We had great seats in the Tabernacle. In our stake some women show up to the broadcast in the stake center. I haven't noticed any reaction. Most people in attendance seem to be half asleep anyway. I went to the women's broadcast once to serve food at the pre-broadcast dinner.

        They didn't let me in the chapel. I was relegated to serving food and taking down tables and chairs.

          My wife read the report, but neither of us watched it.

            Hey, I bet he left the session feeling better about himself than he would have going to Priesthood.

                  No -they'd be turned away from the Conference Center for sure. No one's going to turn them away from a Stake Center though...

                    Was she wearing the uniform?

                          Isn't there some sort of publication where they print the talks as well?

                            For the first time, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will offer the male-only priesthood session of the upcoming general conference over live broadcast television and in real time over the Internet.

                                I can't believe that the pie and milk shake lobbies allowed this to happen.
