To whomever I am suposed to be addressing this note:

My name is David W. Bishop (aka Papa Bishop). I live on Tipperary Hill a few blocks from the Tipperary Hill light and wrote the article in question. I have also posted it here twice, only to have it removed again. I hereby grant permission to Wikipedia, and anyone else for that matter, to use the article. I only ask that I be given credit for having written it. If there are any questions I can be reached at PapaBishop@aol.com or by phone. (I'm in the Syracuse phone book.)

Signed, David W. Bishop (PapaBishop)

Asking to be given credit is entirely compatible with the GFDL, and we do this in Wikipedia by using the article history and (optionally) comments like the above on the talk page. Martin

Should not a distinction be made in this article between the Irish, as in the Irish immigrants who settled in the area, and "the Irish", as in the Irish-Americans who vandalised the traffic lights (seeing as "Sons of Ireland" is a phrase used by the Irish-Americans to describe themselves) Jimregan 21:49 May 11, 2003 (UTC)

If you can state definitively (and give a source) that it was either Irish immigrants or Americans of Irish descent who vandalized the lights, then yes, a distinction should be made. -- Plutor 14:02, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Clarify list of areas

The box at the bottom of the page should have a heading of some sort. It is not clear what the box contains. I suggest it here as I am not an expert on this topic.
