I got the original idea from the March 1997 New Era and then added some things to it. I did correct the answers so they were current according to the information on lds.org, and they are correct until 04/22/01, when they dedicate the Winter Quarters Temple. I put the question about the Bountiful Temple in because that is our local temple. You might want to change that one to a temple closer to you.
