2015 April Conference Thread

[Moliere]

According to lds.org, the word was first used in General Conference in 1975 (Boyd!) and became de rigueur in the early- to mid-2000s. It has lost a bit of ground since then, but I stand by my prediction.

It was first used by Franklin D Richards in 1888. Then later on in 1891 by George Q Cannon.

I don't know what sources you are consulting. I, for one, am skeptical of any source outside of lds.org.

I am kind of offended that you are fact-checking my posts. This can only lead to great unhappiness.

I will miss it all with the intent to read the talks in the Ensign and then not do it. I use CS to keep me up to date and I want you all do know how much I appreciate you diligent work here.

Agreed. No good can come looking at what church leaders said pre-1970

You can always download the audio and listen while you ride your bike. Should make the miles fly by.

Accountants, like golden retrievers, are only happy when doing what they've been trained to do. One likes to wade into foul waters and the other gets ducks out of ponds.

Come on. You aren't just a leetle flattered?

[Pelado]

Wow, it doesn't seem that long ago to me.

I was in the MTC during the conference when it was unveiled.

There's some fascinating stuff that has been said over the pulpit in GC.

Are you serious Copelius? Are you in the 'Tab?

New this year. Look for me in the Bass section on Saturday am. One of the mustachioed few.

The fact that anyone other than my grandmother reads my posts is a minor miracle. Tender mercies, pickles, and all that.

I won't fact check you on that.

EDIT: Actually, Moliere, that is a really neat tool. I'll probably waste too much time on it. BTW, it is interesting to look up a word like "supernal." 15 total references between the 1880s and the 1980s, and then,

BOOM! goes the Dynamite!

33 uses of "supernal" in the 90s, 39 in the 2010s, and we continue on at roughly the same pace through the first part of the 2010s.

[Pelado]

You're too trusting. Need some more professional skepticism.

I am surprised they would even let you through the door, but congrats just the same.

P.S. So what is the church's policy on MoTab members bringing a cardboard big head to a performance?
