  • hooray for intstitute...that's where I got this totally awesome list of questions and such.  Right on!

  • Well just to clarify: I made this list. I wrote it, using a few other lists in addition to my own findings. I did it to put in a Book of Mormon that I am giving to a friend after a conversation we had yesterday.
