Hello, Pseudonmys. About an hour ago, my entry for Missoula, MT, http://www.h2g2/com/A493652 was moved into the "pending" stage, courtsey of your efforts. I have a correction to make regarding the groups headquartered here. Thanks to my half-assed research, I announced that we have the HQ of the National Wildlife Federation, when in fact we only have a branch. Can you change this notation to plug the Missoula All-Maggots Rugby Club instead?

Plus, I had a number of links off site, and removed links to h2g2 entries. Did you see these changes? Or are off-site links in a Edited Guide Entry frowned upon?

Sorry about the misspelling of your user name.

Two additions to my above comments, speaking of misspellings. In the first footnote you have the Lewis & Clark Expedition's timeline as 1904-1806. Unless the space-time continuum has changed in the past hundred years, I don't think these are the correct dates. 1804-1806 is more likely.

Norman Maclean's name is spelled as just that, with a lowercase "l" in Maclean, NOT MacLean. The lowercase l indicates a Highland Scots origin, of which the Maclean family is very proud. As they still live around here, I would hate for them to see an entry containing a slur upon their name.

Thanks again, FG

Once again it's me. William Clark was a Captain in the US Army, not a Lieutenant. Hopefully you will see these notes before long...I understand your off-site is pretty hectic, and you do not log on that often. Damn.

OK Fraulein, I'm freshly returned from my festive perambulations, and I'm looking into your little problem right now. I'll be back.

No, that's not sarcasm. Anna and the gang have corrected most of the sticking points. However, I still would like to include the off-site links (they were changed after the entry was recommended...not your doing at all) and the listing of the National Wildlife Federation to our famous (or infamous) rugby club. The revised entry can be found on my page under my quasi-autobiography.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

Good grief. The site just threw me out and hasn't let me back on for ten hours. OK, since this conversation is split over several forums, I'm consolidating things and moving this discussion to the Missoula page. See you there...
