Van as Green Hornet director
Quote from the article: "In 1993 Van Williams made a cameo in Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story as a director of The Green Hornet. It is unknown which director he was depicting." Can someone check the film? I am certain it was said that this was a test for Lee, or just maybe the pilot. The latter was "Programmed for Death," whose director was Larry Peerce. However, as the scene being shot bears no resemblance to any scene for that episode or anything else known to have been filmed for the show (including tests that recently surfaced on Youtube, some with different actors than those in the actual series), we can probably dispense with the implication that a specific real director was in anybody's mind here.

Date of passing
I find it amazing that in today's world that the EXACT date of someone's passing STILL can't be determined.

What is even more amazing is that even here in/at Wikipedia, there is no consensus.

The Death 'page' has one date and the Van Williams page has a different date.

Granted the dates are only a day apart --- Nov. 28 vs Nov. 29 --- but still I find it rather unusual. If there is current doubt about the EXACT date, why not use a "/" like "November 28/29, 2016" with a possible notation as to why an exact date has not yet been determined?

Just curious. 2600:8800:50B:6700:C23F:D5FF:FEC5:89B6 (talk) 02:42, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
