By now, everyone knows that the hateful gerontocracy of the Mormon Church was on proud display by Boyd Packer.

A Salt Lake City television station is running a poll on whether the audience agrees with that benighted homophobia. The numbers aren't as bad as I expected, but then, SLC is full of gentiles.
