    Any chance the Ted Lyon clips will be available in audio format ? (I listen to MS while driving in the car.)

    John, an mp3 version of this one would be nice. Why don’t you have one for this like you do the rest of this stuff that you’ve put up on the site lately?

    This is so cool. I had professor Lyon years ago at BYU. Does anyone know how to get in touch with him now?

    What a wonderful way to spend 20 minutes! Especially interesting were the stories told by President Lyon. My sweetie and I are now full-time missionaries in Coquimbo, Chile. One of the things we have learned here is that everyone has a conversion story–and personal stories are always meaningful.
