It's always fun to count how many male names have to be read before they can name even ONE female.

Sorry, instead of "fun" I should have said "depressing."

Now, allow me to read a selection from the SLC phone book.

Noice apologetic worked into the tithing audit. Saving for a time of need.

To reiterate...

There is no time to read off three numbers for membership but they just took 15 minutes to do sustainings.

Since the choir numbers are just rebroadcast from previous years, they could have also rebroadcast the auditing report from any of the last ten conferences. It would have been equally useful.
