[edit] Bicycle

More Congratulations it got main page billing as well! --Sf 11:25, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Re: Corner shops and helmets - some people do a double take when they talk to me on this issue. I've found myself in the position of (cautiously) endorsing them for people who want to take long recreational trips while generally questioning their use for corner-shop type journeys. My reasoning usually relates to what I think will make that person more likely to cycle. The more people cycling the better for them individually and for rest of us collectively - and me personally too :-) --Sf 16:01, 1 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Congratulations it finally got through! --Sf 13:20, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

I am now happy that my previously stated concerns have been addressed - best of luck with the nomination. --Sf 10:49, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Christmas article

Nice edits. I couldn't face another pass at it, myself! Elf | Talk 01:01, 19 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Yeah, we Elfs (sic) have to keep an eye on christmas or it gets all messed up. :-) Don't know whether I've got the energy, either, for another whack at some of the date stuff. I've put in way too many hours on mixed-breed dog, which someone nominated for featured article. Yup, you did the talk thing fine. Many people answer on their own talk page when questions or comments are posted there, so whenever I leave something on someone's talk page, I add that page to my watchlist so I'll see if/when they post a response there.

[edit] Yellow-rumped warbler(s) snafu

OK, wait, I found something. To see what's happening, type "yellow-rumped warbler" into your search box WITH the quotation marks around it. That'll show you that there are actually 2 articles, one whose title is capitalized (yours) and one whose isn't. If you click on the link to the 2nd one, it'll go to Myrtle Warbler; below the title it will say Redirected from yellow-rumped warbler, and that's a link. Click that link and you'll go to the page that's causing the redirect, which is the lowercase one. Then you can edit that page to change the redirect from myrtle warbler to your correctly capitalized page. Hope this helps. (I didn't change it myself so that you could see what it looks like. No guarantee someone else won't fix it first, though. :-) ) Elf | Talk 22:39, 23 Aug 2004 (UTC)

You can try these steps to see what has happened if you'd like to:

  1. In the search box, type yellow-rumped warbler.
    This displays the article.
  2. Click the History tab.
    This shows who edited the article and when. You can see that your edits are there, as well as additional users afterwards.
  3. Click your browser's BACK button to get back to the article.
  4. Below the title, click where it says " Redirected from Yellow-rumped warbler".
    This displays the page containing the redirect.
  5. Click the History tab at the top.
    This shows that yesterday it redirected to Myrtle Warbler and then today someone changed it to redirect to the yellow-rumped article.

Elf | Talk 18:43, 25 Aug 2004 (UTC)

For want of anything better, Handbook of the Birds of the World is the Wikipedia standard, and where different views exist, this can be reflected in the article.

[edit] Capitals

nice. a "capital" addition to "food-borne infections" Sfahey 22:56, 1 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Thank you. Using too many capitals in section headings and article titles is one of the most frequent faults on Wikipedia. I just corrected some of those in arm (see [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style). Michael Hardy 13:57, 2 Sep 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Christmas

Thanks for moving all that wild stuff from the end. The article was otherwise near-ready for "feature" status. Sfahey 23:04, 1 Sep 2004 (UTC)

You're welcome.--Johnstone 22:54, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Verbosity

Yeah, I know what you mean about unnecessary verbosity. When I write something, I often sit for hours trying to figure out how to say the same thing in fewer words. User:karn 18 Sep 2004

[edit] high jump & hockey

Hey there. I am glad that you like the high jump picture. It is a public domain picture that I got from Library and Archives Canada. They have a lot of great pictures. If you are looking for other pictures, I would recommend going there. The link is http://www.collectionscanada.ca/archivianet/020115_e.html. Note that all of the pictures are related to Canada in some way, but they tend to be great pictures. If you want to see what others I have added as a comparison, check out the images in the following list: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Whatlinkshere&target=Library_and_Archives_Canada. I linked to Library and Archives Canada whenver I took a picture from there.

As for your hockey comment, I wasn't aware that those guys were called the "Uke line". That's cool. I am a fan of hockey, but I was born in the 70s.

-- JamesTeterenko 21:53, 28 Sep 2004 (UTC)

[edit] You're most welcome...

glad somebody else caught it. I couldn't believe that a featured article would have so blatant an error...in the first sentence no less! Mackensen (talk) 06:22, 13 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Niagara Falls pictures

Good day. I have put the two pictures up on the Niagara Falls page. Sorry for the delay, but I had a busy weekend. I just put the pictures in spots that I figured was reasonable. I don't mind pulling them in for you. However, if you would like help on how to get those images give me a bit more information about the problem you were having. Did you have problems seeing the large picture on the Archives Canada web page? Were you able to save the jpg on your computer? Did you have problems uploading the picture to Wikipedia? -- JamesTeterenko 06:29, 22 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Feature Article

Good day. Congrats on the minimal objections so far to the Niagara Falls nomination. I like the idea of adding a popular culture section as per the current request. Another thing I wouldn't mind seeing is pictures of the other falls. I believe there is a good picture in Commons:Niagara Falls. I'd add it myself, but I am way to tired to do that right now. -- JamesTeterenko 03:32, 7 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Well, I just added the picture from the Commons. I like the pictures from American Falls better, but I figured it would be better to use a different picture. -- JamesTeterenko 21:04, 7 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

[edit] Christmas

Hey, Sfahey, thanks for your message, I appreciate it. I'm impressed by the way you've managed to steer Christmas through all those national and religious sensibilities, and I absolutely didn't mean to add to your headaches. I did help shoot the article down last time you nominated it, but my intentions were good. The Swedish paragraph reads fine now--still a little bizarre (just right)! :-)--[[User:Bishonen|Bishonen (talk)]] 12:01, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] References and External links

Hi, Sfahey, I've formatted the refs and external links for Christmas, for the viewing pleasure of FAC hardasses. The principle is to avoid duplicating entries between References and External links: an external links that is also a reference goes in the Reference section, with the title made into a link, compare examples here. A few things for you to review:
1. I think the Catholic Encyclopedia is 1913, but presumably "1908" came from somewhere? I put in the {{catholic}} template, see Wikipedia article Catholic Encyclopedia . Strictly speaking I guess one shouldn't have the dictionary in the refs section when it appears as a template, but I left it in on the overriding common-sense or ignore-all-rules principle, since the fulltext link isn't immediately available from the template.
2. I've made some assumptions about the New Columbia Dictionary material used, please check it out.
3. The Duchesne book was first published in 1889. Is the 1902 ed., which is only one of many later eds, privileged in some way (like did you actually use it?). I've provisionally changed it to 1889. But I think it's a somewhat weird reference altogether, frankly. Doesn't the Catholic Encyclopedia Christmas article already derive from it?
I don't know if maybe some more of the external links could be graduated into the ref section, you're the judge of that. They'd need to be serious sites (for instance getting referred to www.yuleloveit.com would give me the wrong vibes ;-)). Incidentally, I raised my finger to delete "Christmas gifts": A tale, but then thought it might hurt somebody's feelings. But it really is, uh, well, you take a look. It's just redundant. There's tons of that stuff on the web. I'm glad to see the article's doing well on WP:FAC so far!--[[User:Bishonen|Bishonen (talk)]] 18:39, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] For a merry Christmas, best ignore Christmas

Hi, Sfahey, I hope you're having a relaxing, non-wikiholic Christmas. Advice: leave your watchlist alone, don't look in on Christmas until after the holidays, you can revert the whole mess to Featured version then and hope it'll stick. (Too much crazed editing going on there right now.)--Bishonen | (Talk) 15:10, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Got your note about the Christmas article. I've been avoiding it for weeks because of the aforementioned editing frenzy. Maybe I'll go take a look again someday soon. You know we ELFs know so much about xmas...  ;-) Elf | Talk 20:10, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] History Mystery

If someone makes no changes to a page but saves it anyway, there'll be no difference between the pages and so nothing to report in the differences/changes columns. (I suspect this usually happens with newcomers, who might play around with a page without saving the changes, but then after removing the edits, save it anyway just to be sure.) If someone adds or removes blank lines, you'll see just blank lines on one side or the other; the "+" is just an indictor of the change type. Hope this answers your question. If not, if you ever encounter what you described, give me the history URL and I'll take a peek. Elf | Talk 20:10, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Weight training

Hiya, and thank you for your edits to improve the article. It's definitely been reassuring to have an expert looking over my shoulder, making sure that I don't write total rubbish.

I have now finished the changes that various people suggested (in various places) from the peer review process. Do they look OK? Also, do you think the article is now ready to be submitted as a Featured Article Candidate? GeorgeStepanek\talk 02:13, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Thank you for jumping in to address Taxman's comments. I like the additions that you have made, particularly regarding sport training and plyometrics, which are subjects that I know very little about. Sorry, I'm not so sure about the "is generally accepted" rephrasing: I think many people will consider that to be weasel wording. The article really needs a good (referenced) explanation of why weight training is actually the most effective technique, and I'm quite happy to do that, but it'll have to wait until Monday when I have better computer access again. GeorgeStepanek\talk 03:14, 22 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Re "Don't throw out the footnotes idea": that was not my intention at all, sorry. I have added one citation to justify the "increased metabolism following workout" assertion. I will include as many more as I can find (on Monday!). I just thought it a little strange, and not really normal wikipedia style to footnote books that are listed in the References section. Especially not for a non-technical subject like this one. (Thank you for being so patient with me!) I have also added the promised justification for the "most effective" claim. The citation is yet to come. I have also tried to clarify the relationship between reistance training and weight training. GeorgeStepanek\talk 01:58, 23 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Thank you! Congratulations yourself, good sir. Re picture, you mean Image:DumbbellDeadlift.JPG? I have no idea how that migrated from Commons to en. I assumed it was just a quirk of MediaWiki. GeorgeStepanek\talk 21:07, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)

That was my costume for the LOTR ROTK film premiere in Wellington last year. I was supposed to look like a Ranger, hence the stubble. No sword: they wouldn't let me take one on the plane. GeorgeStepanek\talk 22:31, 27 Jan 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Space Race

Hi - I saw your (deservedly) piqued comments on WP:FAC - please don't give up - Space Race shows the results of your efforts, and it is truly appreciated by many. (As it happens, I like Exploded whale too, but there we go.) -- ALoan (Talk) 23:25, 9 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Bicycle

Hi, could you leave a message at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Bicycle explaining exactly why you feel Bicycle should be featured. Thanks.--Pharos 02:29, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] UMD Page

Hey. The "M-Square stuff" is a massive research initiative the University's getting going with about 20+ public and private contributors. They're builiding this huge research park adjacent to the university which will house NASA, NIH, NOAA, and some other public agencies and corporations. The idea is to provide the university with continuing research opportunities and to provide students (like myself) the chance to have some excellent internship opportunities right in College Park. The entire area is being built in stages with the first part opening late this year or early next. You can check out the university's pamphlet about it too if you want to know more: http://www.inform.umd.edu/nowandthen/news/msquare.pdf

[edit] Talk:Weight training

Thank you for your kind words, and for your support. I must admit to having had little experience with edit conflicts so far—weight training having been long-forgotten corner of Wikipedia—so I'm just doing my best here. What's a little frustrating is that Dan100 could be adding real value to the article, but not in the way that he's editing now. GeorgeStepanek\talk 00:03, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Sigh. Even though I merged in many of Dan100's changes, and invited him to discuss the remainder, he simply reverted back to his version. I think he may be seeking a revert war here. If he does, could I ask you to back me up, please? I don't want to fall foul of the 3RR. Thanks! GeorgeStepanek\talk 22:50, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Thank you for your kind words and support—again! Yes, I'll be happy to write up the aerobic vs anaerobic distinction, although I fear that my explanation will only be an entry-level one. I'll have some time for it next week. GeorgeStepanek\talk 09:02, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Just to let you know that on the wikien-l mailing list Blair is claiming that he was working with you in the recent edit war: "No, George, the page history shows Sfahey and I were working on it..." Also, that I'll be taking an indefinite leave of absence from Wikipedia. I've explained my reasons here. Thank you for all your support: it was very nice indeed working with you. GeorgeStepanek\talk 21:42, 20 Mar 2005 (UTC)


Thank you for your very kind words.

It was certainly a learning experience for me. To be honest, I wasn't really suprised by the surge in vandalism when Weight Training was featured on the front page. Nor even by the sudden appearance of POV-warriors like Dan100 and Blair P. Houghton, who were prepared to use any means necessary to delete and rewrite the existing text in order to get the page to reflect their POV. (As opposed to adding descriptions and information regarding opposing POVs, which is what anyone else would do.)

No, what really suprised me was the support these individuals (and their behaviour) have amongst a significant segment of the admin community—including Cecropia, who appears to be a well-respected admin and bureaucrat. I was completely unaware of the political minefield that I was stepping into. To me, it felt like being mugged by a policeman.

What I also learnt is that while I can attempt a "defence" like this, I am not well suited to the role. I get too badly affected by the stress and unpleasantness. It is far better for me, therefore, to find quiet corners of Wikipedia in which to work. (Indeed, "Weight training" was just such a quiet corner, until I was foolish enough to make it into a featured article.)

Anyhow, I'll be shortly going on a much-needed, long holiday. Who knows? Wikipedia may well have fixed up its policies and procedures regarding POV-warriors by the time I get back. GeorgeStepanek 00:58, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

In case anyone ever stumbles over this, I'd just like to point out ('for the record') that George was attempting to force out alternate PoV edits (ie attempts to present a NPOV). I refer anyone who wants to know more to the history of Weight training around early March, where you can see the evidence yourself and make your own mind up. Dan100 17:06, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Sfahey said: ... for (reading and) fixing the "Style Invitational" article. Now you ought to find it on <www.washingtonpost.com> this Sunday ... go to the "Style" section ... and see about entering it, too. Sfahey 02:44, 16 August 2005 (UTC)

Hi there. I have to admit your message has left me a tad confused. What is it you need me to do? I haven't really done that much to the article, in my eyes, and am not sure what you want me to do for it further. Please advise. Thank you. Bobo192|Edits

Sfahey said: I was pleased that someone far away had read the article, and closely enough to pick out two typos at that. My suggestion was simply that you go to the listed website on Sunday, scroll around for the "Style" section of that day's newspaper, and try your hand at the contest. This Sunday the "Empress" will explain the upcoming contest, and print the results from a (pretty good) contest from earlier this summer.

Well, the main reason I got around to reading the article was a list of articles with grammatical errors, for which I have begun to amend them. I'm not sure about me and the contest, I'll check it out right now. Thank you. Bobo192|Edits

[edit] Weight training suggestion

I'd be glad to try my hand at something. Could you point me toward the part of the weight-training article that you were thinking of? Jeremy J. Shapiro 19:25, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Asthma

  • I agree with your recent edit adding comment under 'Asthma and athletics' about exercise-induced asthma. But why is mild asthma more likely to be diagnosed in an athlete ? - surely someone with moderate-severe asthma is more likely to be diagnosed.
    • I wonder if what you meant to imply is that those with very-mild asthma would normal go undiagnosed in the general population, but by reason of being an athlete, they exacerbate the condition with EIA and so unmask the presence of the condition ?
  • There also ought to be a firmer mention in this section about the regulation of broncho-dilator use by professional atheletes (Olympic Committee/Athletic Federation rules etc etc) . I think you are likely to be better qualified in this than myself as a GP. David Ruben Talk 01:55, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hi

Because I've been bumping into you on a couple of pages lately and appreciate your edits, and notice your interests are varied, I'm wondering if you'd take a look at the Paul Robeson page. Don't know if you know of Robeson (or have heard him sing) but stalemate needs to be broken over there. If you have time would you take a look? Tx. skywriter 07:36, 5 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Inane?

Hi. I reverted your change which removed the word "pushbike" from Bicycle. I'm unclear why you think this is "inane": the term is common in some areas, though possibly not the US, and pushbike redirects to Bicycle, so it should be both mentioned and bolded. I appreciate you have done a lot of work on that article and may feel a sense of ownership, but please keep in mind that we must be as inclusive as possible and write for an international audience. Besides, never heard of "The pushbike song"? Graham 03:50, 14 March 2006 (UTC)




[edit] Thanks

Thanks for spending the time improving the Canada article. I've also made the changes in regarding your suggestions. -- Jeff3000 03:42, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Space Race

Hey there. I noticed that you nominated Space race for FA more than a year ago and you may have noticed that the page has been taken to WP:FAR (at the bottom of the major reviews section). This is the new FA removal process. One problem is the lack of in-line citations. Is there anyway you can work backwards from the references (assuming you were involved in going through them to begin with) and maybe introduce some cites? Any other comments on the current review welcome. The nominator has pointed out some problems with structure. Cheers, Marskell 16:17, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Arlington County, Project of the Week

I saw that you recently edited Arlington County, Virginia. It is just one vote away from being the US project of the week. But if it fails to get that one vote before Sunday, it will be dropped altogether. Please consider voting for it. Thank you. Thesmothete 05:12, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bicycle listed for review

I've listed Bicycle at Featured article review, primarily due to problem with the references. You may read my concerns at Wikipedia:Featured article review/Bicycle and leave comments regarding the article's status if you wish. Pagrashtak 23:06, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Christmas

I've comprehensively re-edited the Christmas article over the last couple of months. I thought this would be a good time to seek FA status again. Read it and tell me what you think. Kauffner 22:56, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Hi, Sfahey! I noticed you removed Brad from the Ctr Harbor page. Jut curious why? I didn't put him there, but I see from his bio he actually was born there. Thanks :) -- SatyrTN 01:58, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Nah. I think I just moved him out of the "lead" paragraph. He ain't no Richard Petty. Sfahey 22:26, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] HIV

Hello. I remember that you did some editing to the HIV article a while back. It has undergone considerable work since that time but it does require a copyedit. If you have time, a look with fresh eyes from someone experienced in getting articles to FA would be appreciated. Thank you. --Bob 17:03, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Aha. Das ist sehr gut! I went to an excellent talk on the topic by an NIH scientist this week. I may even be able to ADD something, intead of just sniping at others' efforts. Sfahey 20:52, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Feingold diet

Hi! We need a few second opinions on the Feingold diet page. It started out as a crib from QuackWatch, and was re-written by Shula and me. It's now pretty much in the Feingold camp. What we need is some fresh eyes to get it encyclopedic and balanced. Hope you can help. --Slashme 07:50, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

  • thanks for note re "Feingold", but I believe I know (and believe) less about all that stuff than any M.D. I know. I just tell people to have a glass of water and leafy salad before each meal, have three colors of food at each meal, and eat 1/3rd less of each color than usual. btw, did you proofread that hat you're sporting? Sfahey 11:26, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
OK, thanks. If you know someone who can help, etc. etc... As for the hat, no. Not even the sporting section. --Slashme 11:50, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Doing something about the ridiculous date autoformatting/linking mess

Dear Sfahey—you may be interested in putting your name to, or at least commenting on this new push to get the developers to create a parallel syntax that separates autoformatting and linking functions. IMV, it would go a long way towards fixing the untidy blueing of trivial chronological items, and would probably calm the nastiness between the anti- and pro-linking factions in the project. The proposal is to retain the existing function, to reduce the risk of objection from pro-linkers.Tony 15:07, 9 December 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Paris 1919

Hello, this one's a bit of a blast from the past but I've been doing some reading on the Balfour Declaration, and came across this edit of yours, re: Balfour and someone's Jewish wife: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Balfour_Declaration_of_1917&diff=25000537&oldid=25000107

It was removed about a year later because no quote could be found in Paris 1919. I have just tonight been looking for it as well to no avail. I was hoping you could shed some light on the matter, thanks! -Yipperson 07:20, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Ha. I just spent a half hour googling to try to find the source, b/c I couldn't recall the name of the book in which I read that item. When I returned here, I reread your post and ...voila... you had already reminded me of the title. It had to have been in one of the Israel chapters of that book, since I don't recall reading anything else in that kind of detail on the subject. Sfahey 15:30, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
Hi there, thanks for taking the time. I'm pretty interested in finding this specific source/reference, so if you've ever got nothing to do, there'd be no end to my appreciation if you could take another look at P1919. I took another scan thru it today via the index and didn't come up with anything. Maybe I have a different edition, or maybe I'm just not looking in the right place... Anyway, much oblige! -Yipperson 05:58, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Center Harbor, NH

Thanks for those cleanups to the images on Ctr Harbor! I wondered if you would mind if I returned the Notable inhabitants back, though? All the NH cities and towns have a standard layout, with that section called "notable inhabitants" and after the "History" section. Thanks again! -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 14:30, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, sure. I didn't remove it, just added Penny Pitou and changed it to what I thought was the usual location and name, lower in the article. Sfahey 14:33, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Anna Kournikova

Hey, can you explain what you are trying to do with this article? Your edit introduced some broken formatting over the entire article so it was easier to revert completely instead of fixing issue by issue. -SpuriousQ (talk) 15:23, 23 March 2008 (UTC)

Really, what are you doing? It's difficult to tell because your edit summary simply says "elim extra spaces". Your version has formatting that reads like this:
"FHM and Maxim.Kournikova was named"
"U.S. and UK editions.By contrast"
"athletes.{{fact|date=January 2007"
I know you're trying to improve the article, but it's too hard for me to tell what you're doing. May I suggest making smaller, incremental edits with explanatory edit summaries? -SpuriousQ (talk) 02:11, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
Beats me where those spacing things came from. I believe I found and fixed them, and returned the thing to where it was WITHOUT those little beasties. Sfahey (talk) 03:39, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
