    P.S. So what is the church's policy on MoTab members bringing a cardboard big head to a performance?
    I did have to trim back to the mustache in order to participate. My understanding is the cardboard heads are frowned upon. When I sang with the BYU Choirs in conferences past I was able to wear a very bright tie to stand out. I got nothing now since ties are matching.

      Dang, correlation ruins everything.

      YOU GOT THE STACHE!!!! Nothing says look at me (or the 1970's) like a good mustache!

        Wiggle your ears, if you can. I'll be watching for you, Copelius.

          I'll take what I can get. I got to sing in the loft yesterday for the first conference rehearsal (I have been in the basement for choir school since January) and it was a great experience. Faster pace than any other choir with which I have ever sung. I sang with Mack at BYU and he is still an amazing conductor. Ryan is also terrific and I have had a fantastic time with him in the Temple Square Chorale.

            I can wiggle them but I have never tried while singing. It may be like patting your head while rubbing your belly.

              General Conference trivia:

              Without looking at the database, who can guess in what year was the first mention of a transplant surgery in GC? Who delivered the talk?

              First three types of transplant surgeries referenced?

              Total number of talks referencing transplant surgeries?

              Number of talks by Russell M. Nelson referencing heart transplants?

                  1) 1985
                  2) Nelson
                  3) heart, heart, and heart
                  4) how many talks has Nelson given?
                  5) see above

                    Coming in at number 2:
                    President Hinckley got up during the 1989 April Conference and gave President Benson's powerful rebuke against pride. President Hinckley opened the talk saying that President Benson felt more comfortable with someone else delivering the address than himself.
                    I suppose Hinkley had more pride than Benson.

                        I love this place for the comments. Makes me wonder if the whole site is a giant and brilliant troll. The directed anger about the insensitivity of including the Hunter tip-over footage!

                              Valiant effort, but I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul. Correct answers (inasmuch as the database is correct):

                              1992
                              Chieko N. Okazaki
                              Cornea, liver, kidney
                              4
