I hope that you were able to catch all or most of the Interpreter Foundation\u2019s conference on\u00a0Tracing Ancient Threads in the Book of Moses<\/em>, which took place on Friday night and on the morning and afternoon of Saturday.\u00a0 It was co-sponsored by Book of Mormon Central, Brigham Young University\u2019s Department of Ancient Scripture, and FairMormon.\u00a0 I think it went extremely well, and I\u2019m deeply grateful to Jeff Bradshaw and his co-organizers, and to the technology experts and others involved, for all of the effort that they put into it.\u00a0 I\u2019m pleased to report that preliminary versions of the papers presented at the conference are already available online at the website of the Interpreter Foundation for your reading pleasure:<\/p>\n
