[edit] Hello

Hi, folks:

The source for much of the early biographical information was from Tom Shear himself via e-mail (original Wikipedia research!); the rest was from several web articles and interviews, the most important of which will be listed as sources by the time I'm through. --X3non 19:22, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Doesn't orignal research violate the wiki-law no original research? JohnJohn 19:10, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Interesting point. I wasn't aware that there was a rule against original research.

The "early biographical information" which I was unable to find mentioned in any of the interviews of Tom Shear available on-line consists of Shear's birthdate, where he was born, and where he grew up. It would be a shame to have to remove his birthdate and place of birth, as this is a biography.

It's late. I'll try to come back in the next few days and add sources for the rest of the info, which, again, can be found in interviews of Tom Shear via google. --X3non 30 Mar 2006

Good work! JohnJohn 21:12, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
