Re: Chrystller
Hello, i am responding to the message you left on my wall. I see what you mean and can understand why, but the Wamego page already has a "Notable People" section and he's in it. So it just seems a bit redundant to also put him in the Pottawatomie as well. I added people who were born solely in Pottawatomie, not a certain area in it. I used the "What Links Here" button and looked for people who fit that criteria and added them while removing ones who didn't (something i've been doing for a while now). I ask that you please remove Chrysler from Pottawatomie. Thank you. OmniFrieza994 (talk) 22:07, 22 May 2022 (UTC)


 * If you see what I mean then what is the problem? Chrysler WAS born in Pottawatomie County. I can't what it matters if he is listed there. What does it really hurt? It is factual. It isn't a matter of redundancy because Wamego, Kansas and Pottawatomie County, Kansas are two different articles. It would be redundant if the entry was in the same article twice. The reader of the article on Pottawatomie County would have no idea that Chrysler was born in Pottawatomie County unless that reader happened to look at the article Wamego, Kansas. Most Kansas County articles that I looked at while researching this issue don't have a notable persons section anyway. Jess Willard was born at Saint Clere, Kansas, yet there is no entry there. BTW, the name is 'Chrysler', not 'Chrystller' You do whatever you want, but I won't revert my edit and it is referenced. Cuprum17 (talk) 22:50, 22 May 2022 (UTC)


 * My apologies for the delay (i thought i'd get a notification when you responded, which didn't happen). What i mean is that he was born in Wamego and is already mentioned in that page's Notable People section. So i just thought also putting him in the people section of the Pottawatomie page seemed a little redundant. And i didn't realize that's where Willard was born since his infobox just said Pottawatomie (been a while since i last fully read the article). Like i said, i just looked through the "What Links Here" tool for Pottawatomie and looked for people whose infoboxes said they were born solely in Pottawatomie (also fixed that spelling error). I have since removed it and i implore that you please leave it that way. I'll deal with Willard and Saint Clere tomorrow. Sorry for the trouble. Have a good one.OmniFrieza994 (talk) 23:16, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

Greetings
Nice to hear from you. I hope all is well in your part of the country.
 * Great to hear from you, too! I have managed to stay fairly healthy and can't complain too much. After a month or two of very rainy weather in April and May, it has finally turned real hot for June. That will dry out the wheat fields so the farmers can get a crop out, but I'm afraid the yields will be down this year because of the wet weather during the growing season. Temps here are close to 100 and that is kind of unusual for June. I have been spending some time in my home machine shop working on my model of the Baldwin K-27 (circa 1903) steam locomotive and it's tender. If I get it finished it will be a working steam locomotive on a 3.5 inch gauge track. I'm not optimistic about finishing it in my lifetime, but it gives me something to tinker with and keep my mind working. The plans are in metric but my lathe and mill aren't so I have to convert everything to imperial measurements to make sense of the whole project. I am currently about a tenth of the way through the locomotive plans and haven't even started the tender. The locomotive has been put aside lately because my 1946 Willys Jeep had been developing a pretty bad leak in the area of the timing cover on the engine. I have run the same engine in it since the mid 70's and I suppose it was time make this repair. It had been getting steadily worse for about a year. I have got the timing cover and oil pan apart and cleaned up and I am now ready to put things back together this week. I can hardly wait, because the old jeep is my daily driver in the summer and at least part of the time in the winter. It is one year older than me and we are both kind of feeling our age from time to time. This fall will be the third year in a row I will trailer the jeep to Nathrop, Colorado for the Fall Color Tour. The FCT is a group of 50 only flat fendered jeeps (pre 1954) that will tour the Forest Service trails in central Colorado for a week. The guy that runs the tour doesn't charge for this. He and his two guides volunteer for this. This will probably be the last year for me and my brother to do this. It is getting harder physically for me and my brother to do this, but both of us enjoy it so much. I don't get to see him very often and we have a good week of adventure and trading stories. I have been fairly busy in the activities at my local Veterans of Foreign Wars post. Lately I have volunteered for the rifle detail that attends the military burial rites for veterans. Once a month I am the cook for the First Wednesday Hamburger Feed at the post. I am the Post Surgeon and keeps me busy at times issuing free hospital equipment to people with health needs in the community. My Wikipedia work is pretty limited nowadays to correcting vandalism and capitalization, punctuation, and correcting 404 errors on mostly Coast Guard related articles. The Coast Guard Historian's Office several years ago changed over to a Department of Defense website and abandoned the old site completely, thus leaving hundreds of broken links in Coast Guard related articles on Wikipedia. It falls to me mostly to track down the new site and repair the links. I would like to write one more article before I get out of Wikipedia. That would be the matching article to my Coast Guard Squadron One article. Coast Guard Squadron Three also deserves an article and if I don't write it, it probably won't get done. Maybe this winter?
 * Nice hearing from you. Stay safe, Shipmate! Cuprum17 (talk) 11:07, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the news. You are one busy guy! I salute you for all the good things you do. Your locomotive project sounds interesting. I have two things in common with 1946; I was discharged from the US Navy and turned 21 years of age. You and your Jeep are just kids. I’ll be 97 in August. My marbles are still intact and I have no trouble getting around. I’m one lucky old timer. I’ve decided to rework the SPARS and see if we can get it further up the line. I hope you can find the time to finish the article you mentioned – I’ll be looking for it. In the meantime, thanks for keeping in touch and for all the help you have given me.
