[edit] Spree

I have removed this article from the category "Spree shootings" because to me it doesn't appear to come under that category - see Spree killer for what appears to be a definition. If I'm wrong (I know nothing about this article's subject and little about killing sprees), please correct me.--A bit iffy 17:31, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Fictionalized account

There is a very detailed fictionalized (but mostly correct) account of this gun battle in the book Unintended Consequences by John Ross. That might deserve a mention.

[edit] What?

I thought the kevlar vest was invented in the late 1960s?

[edit] spam filter preventing edit

I'm trying to remove the word "unfortunately" from "The biggest website about the events of April 11th, 1986 (unfortunately only in Polish)" but the spam filter is preventing that. How is this supposed to be fixed?

What filter? I edited it... 66.36.140.217 04:55, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Michael Platt

Michael Platt is being redirected to this page. Michael Platt is also a writer for the TV series Weeds. Can someone please set up a disambiguation? Joneboi 23:00, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
