In light of the recent conference, I was wondering if anyone remembers the April Conference of 2008. Monson was sustained by many as a prophet, seer, and revelator and the new President of the Church.
In a thoughtful touch probably suggested by Packer, any members watching at home or anywhere else were instructed to raise their arms to the square to sustain Monson. I think I missed that session, but does anyone recall that event, and does anyone formerly in the church recall actually doing it? That seems like the type of intrusive request and thoughtless compliance that I'd be happy to see receding in the rearview mirror.
