[edit] Fox in Supreme Court

I'm relatively certain your story about a fox entering the Supreme Court is not true. It was unsourced, and a google search gave no results regarding the incident. I'm removed the story until you can source this claim from a reputable source. Zelmerszoetrop (talk) 00:53, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Response: The story is absolutely true. It happened on a Sunday; I believe the date was January 13, 2002 (absolutely certain of the weekend and year). I was physically in the building on the following Monday and Tuesday. Monday, tours of the building were canceled and access to many areas was restricted because several hallways were blocked off. Reputable source: That Tuesday's USA Today (1/15/2002?), print edition, page 3-A (as printed in the Washington DC market, at least), carried the story.

Try this link. I went to the USA Today website, clicked on Site Map, then Archives, then entered "Fox" (minus the quotes) in the Search box, and narrowed dates to 1/14/2002 to 1/18/2002. You will find the entry on the second screen. Headline: "Sly intruder infiltrates Supreme Court".

I would appreciate your restoring my entry. Thank you. Typofixer76 (talk) 18:48, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
