[edit] Article Discrepency

Cameron didn't build the first modern hot air balloon, like the article suggests:

"Cameron developed the first modern hot air balloon entitled Bristol Belle which flew for the first time at Weston on the Green in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom on 9th July 1967."

Ed Yost reinvented the machine in association with the US Navy. The hyperlinked Bristol Belle even attests to that fact. I'm going to make the minor correction in the article by clarifying Cameron built the first modern hot air balloon in Europe. LostCause 10:53, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
