This is pretty cool. BYU has made available a database containing every conference address from 1851 to 2010.

Does it include The Body Packer's Original-Hate version or the new Kindler-Gentler version of the "He Would Not Do That!" speech?

That's awesome, but I found a lot of embarrassing non-doctrinal stuff. It would be nice if the database was vetted by the apologists so they can provide us with links to just the doctrinal stuff.

LDS.org has most of it. No need to search the CR's. Just look it up by topic.

I don't know.
There is something I do know: It not includes the "Little Factory" talk.
The same as the conference material at LDS.org.
That talk became a pamphlet then disappeared.
As far as I know, it can not be found on any official, semi-official (apologist), or church-friendly site.
So much about "we have nothing to hide".
by the way that database is available for a few months since (maybe more than a half year).

God has the right to create and to destroy, to make like and to kill. He can delegate this authority if he wishes to. I know that can be scary. Deal with it.
