NJ pics, to-be County Challenge Winner, and a new competition
Hey there. I wanted to inform you of a few things. 1) If you need pics for NJ articles, you can pull them off my Flickr page. For example, your NJ 23 articles has a pic section. Here is the entire NJ set of mine: here. 2) Once you complete the final articles for NJ, you will be declared the winner of the County Challenge. Congrats. Also, #3) We have a new USRD/CRWP competiton called the USRDCRWPCup. We would like it if you would join :). (Also, have you been able to get a IRC chat client? Chatzilla, Mibbit.com, or Freenode's Java chat work.) Cya. Mitch 32 ( Go Syracuse ) 18:34, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to the USRD-CRWP Cup
Hello, Dough4872, and welcome to the USRD-CRWP Cup. This is just a reminder that the contest will start at 00:00 UTC on Saturday (about 4 PM Pacific and about 7 PM Eastern on Friday). Nominations must be made after that time to count for the contest.

Currently, there is only one pool for contestants. Please feel free to invite any Wikipedia user to join. We need a few more users to get another pool.

It is unknown when the first round will end; however, it will last at least 3 weeks.

Your GA nomination of New Jersey Route 27
The article New Jersey Route 27 you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold. It hasn't failed because it's basically a good article, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:New Jersey Route 27 for things needed to be addressed. --Polaron | Talk 20:21, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

USRD cup inquiry
I noticed all your uploads on the 12th and I was wondering which of those you thought were useful for USRD articles here on enwp? I assume some of them are, but I'm not giving points for all of them. --Rschen7754 (T C) 02:13, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

NJ 35 GA
Hi. I've reviewed New Jersey Route 35 and have placed it on hold. It basically has the same issues as NJ 27 and should be easily fixable. Let me know on the review page when you're done. Thanks. --Polaron | Talk 14:34, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

Re: 10 and 23
Yeah, that is basically the problem. If you could make it somewhat better, that would help. Mitch 32 ( Go Syracuse ) 00:46, 23 January 2009 (UTC)

Delaware roads, National Register of Historic Places
Thanks for fixing all those road links. When I placed the table that you modified, I had to expand the addresses, because the listing page where I got them had them all as abbreviations, so I'm not surprised that I misunderstood some of them. Nyttend (talk) 16:59, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

 * re comment about inflation convertor. I think the objective is to leave the historical amount in place as it is cited in the original reference used for the original year in both the prose and in the inflation template.  It is just a Oh, BTW if you are reading the article now... that amount would be like thinking of this much.  So for each monetary amount you have both...then and now...In this article the monetary conversion is added in the "notes" section for those who are interested for example.

SriMesh | talk  01:01, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Checked out the other aspects and points raised and the other issues look like you did them allrightie...Message me about the inflation template thingie, now that I replied above, so we come to a common consensus one way or t'other, and I will pop in and pass the article.

Hello there. Thank you for taking the time to review Saskatchewan Highway 2. I have taken the time to address the points you raised, and believe that they are covered at this juncture.

GA reviews
I've noticed a few substandard GA reviews that you have done recently - please see Talk:Northern Woods and Water Route for my notes. Further substandard reviews may lead to a deduction of points in the USRD-CRWP Cup. --Rschen7754 (T C) 22:45, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Regarding some of your GA reviews
Hello Dough, I'd like to calmly request you stop reviewing User:Mitchazenia's articles at GAN. No offense, but your reviews are not exactly from a neutral standpoint, as you both are extremely familiar with transport articles. Unfortunately, Mitchazenia was docked 250 points due to this, so please do him a favor, and don't review any more of his articles.

It's not your fault, but we need to be fair to every contestant in the WikiCup, and some of the reviews you gave on his articles are not fair compared to those of other contestants. Thanks,  iMatthew //  talk  // 15:51, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, he told me about that. Thanks for being calm about it, Cheers!  iMatthew //  talk  // 18:36, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Re: Congratulations
Yeah well, its not like you docked me all my points. I am the one who's pretty ticked, this was just after I had reached 1000 pts in GAs. But oh well. Thanks on the congrats and the compliment :)- Mitch 32 ( Go Syracuse ) 20:50, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

GA reviews?
Hi. Are you referring to the WP Meteorlogy assessment system, or did you respond to the above post to an incorrect user? If so, is there something I could help out with? Or are you referring to something else entirely? Thanks. ~ A H  1 (TCU) 23:57, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

A little mix-up
Hello, I am just informing you that when you posted the comment "Geography WikiProject update - 03/15/2009" on several user's talk pages, a comment above that from User:IMatthew's talk page that I had posted ended up on several users' pages that it does not concern. It would help if you inform all the users you posted this comment to of this mistake.Dough4872 (talk) 00:47, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Book for NJ Highways
Since we are growing the NJSCR project so much, maybe if we keep looking, you and I should start looking into plans for the State Highways in New Jersey book using that book feature. It would mean finishing the rest of the state highways and getting them to Good Article status. Right now if I am correct, that leaves:
 * Interstates: All but 295
 * U.S. Routes: All of them
 * State Routes: 11, 12, 13, 14, 18N, 19, 25, 26, 28, 32, 33 Business, 34, 39, 44, 45, 47, 50, 54, 55, 56, 57, 59, 60, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 79, 81, 82, 85, 87, 88, 91, 92, 93, 94, 100, 101, 109, 120, 122, 124, 129, 133, 138, 139, 140, 143, 147, 151, 152, 154, 155, 156, 157, 160, 162, 163, 164, 166, 167, 168, 170, 171, 174, 175, 177, 178, 181, 183, 185, 187, 201, 202, 203, 208, 300, 303, 324, 347, 439, 440, 444 and 700.

As you can see, this is a major list to finish, but we can do it :). Mitch 32 ( Go Syracuse ) 21:07, 16 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I took a look this morning at the book as the articles are now - its right now 880 pages approximate. My gut feeling is this'll reach 1000 eventually if we finish the rest of the non-GAs.Mitch/HC32 11:05, 23 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Right now, after changes, the book is apparently going to be over 950 pages :S - and well, its going to cost $32. But I like the idea that we go through with this :) - ping me when you can.Mitch/HC32 21:46, 23 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Not true at all :P - look up more than designation stuff you know :) - Mitch/HC32 23:01, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

439 is finished. Leaves a good list still though.Mitch/HC32 17:35, 24 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I am working for this book. Also, I am going to get 149 tomorrow - I started some of it.<i style="color:red;">Mitch</i>/<i style="color:black;">HC32</i> 17:43, 24 June 2009 (UTC)


 * I started a sandbox for NJ 169. Now I am sure you are thinking, why merge it out of 440? Well, look at the talk of page of User:Mitchazenia/New Jersey Route 169 and you might see why.<i style="color:red;">Mitch</i>/<i style="color:black;">HC32</i> 22:13, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

NJ 180
New Jersey Route 180 has been nominated for a good article reassessment. Articles are typically reviewed for one week. Please leave your comments and help us to return the article to good article quality. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status will be removed from the article. Reviewers' concerns are here. --NE2 19:24, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
 * My $.02 I would not have passed this article, as IMO the article fails on two grounds of the good article criteria, verifiability (NE2 is right, this source is a personal website, not a reliable 3rd party published source), and Notability. Would you be willing to reconsider the review? If you will, the review process is not necessary, and IMO some mud slinging can be avoided. Regards Dave (talk) 21:08, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

Hey, I have updated the US 202 and US 322 maps for New Jersey as requested. Enjoy! 25or6to4 (talk) 21:26, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

Remember the county challenge?
Even with the ongoing drama, I have set up signups for the County Challenge 2. Only thing you'll have to change is your state :( - Since NJ won the last one, I'd like to see a state with more than 20 counties get more of your good attention :) - You can sign up until April 5 - so if you can find a state, be our guest ;). Cya (and sorry about NJ 180). Mitch 32 ( Go Syracuse ) 22:49, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

2 things I wanted to tell you
Hey there, I just have to bring you up to date on a few things. Anyway, I am fine now with getting rid of NJ 180. I guess it was the wrong decision on my part to write it. Anyway we have another problem for NJSCR, because of the mass amount of GAs now using Alps' Roads as a primary source, we could run into a major delistment. We have to find sources and fast (see New Jersey Route 284 for example). I would highly suggest sources of maps and more stuff.

Second thing I wanted to tell you is that about the WikiCup situation. iMatthew gave me my 250 points back, but left something for me to tell you. With the County Challenge going on in the side, you'll have to back off on reviewing anything of mine that relates to the Good Article stuff. iMatthew said it would be more preferable that you back off on all types of reviewing because of the Conflict of Interest and well, its going to have to be so. Just do me that favor. I hope you understand.

See you later. Mitch 32 ( Go Syracuse ) 15:12, 28 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks for understanding. I just don't want more problems. :) - Anyway, I see you GAN'd your first CC article :) - Mitch 32 ( Go Syracuse ) 15:33, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

You don't have to remove the total mileage from the lead (though not having it in the lead doesn't harm the article). --Rschen7754 (T C) 02:58, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Baltimore-Washington Parkway
I just finished posting a few feedback comments on the current introduction to the linked article. Basically, I think the current intro is unwieldy and duplicates info shown later in the article. Since you've been editing it so heavily I figured that you may have a reason for the duplication. -User:TheOneKEA —Preceding undated comment added 03:12, 29 April 2009 (UTC).

The Chesapeake City, MD roads
Are moving to GA fast :) - A city I've wanted to target for a long time, thanks for getting Maryland Route 213 to GA, that saves me a lot of work. I got 285 to GA, and I have 284 at C - dunno how I can GA that and get away with it. I gotta finish 286 - leaving 537, 342 and the all important list and I have a GT for Chesapeake City :) - Thanks again for 213.3 1/2 years of Mitch32 21:12, 6 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, the problem is, I can't put that list in the topic - not in scope. Maybe when I write List of highways in Chesapeake City, Maryland, it might help. Anyway, I finished 537 and am mostly done with 286, leaving 342.3 1/2 years of Mitch32 22:49, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Thank you
...for reverting LivingBot's erroneous edit. I think I've found the problem, but I shan't take it personally if you revert every even remotely unhelpful edit. Humans are always better than bots. Anyhow, cheers for that. - Jarry1250 (t, c) 17:03, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

WP:Good articles/recent
Hey Dough4872. I would just to apologise for and explain the disruption you may have noticed on WP:Good articles/recent. Following a bot request, it became apparent that it would be handy to have a bot pipe new additions to WP:GA onto the /recent subpage. Now, I admit that the bot's been having a few problems (it's still officially in trial), but I hope these have now been worked out. It should mean that every 5 minutes the newest additions are added automatically, so all users like you have to do is add the newly listed GA to WP:GA and let the bot do the work. Of course, you're allowed to do it yourself, but you don't have to. That's the plan, anyhow, so it might be an idea to add the article to WP:GA, then wait ten minutes. If the bot hasn't added it yet, add it manually and come straight to me so I can fix the bot. Essentially though, you can either carry on as normal or take advantage of the bot, as you wish. Thanks for your patience and sorry for any disruption caused. - Jarry1250 (t, c) 17:50, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Re: the Connector ACR
I apologize, I didn't get to devote quite as much time to Wikipedia as I thought I would today. That being said, I did get the chance to look at the route description and maps of the area more thoroughly, and it's a lot clearer to me what's going on now. While I do like the recent edits you've made, there are still some more ( :-/ ) comments I have, but I won't have the opportunity to put them into words until tomorrow. – Kacie Jane (talk) 03:36, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

You are a testament to the diligence of the roadgeek, if not for you a few roads articles would not be GAs anymore.

Hi, I normally edit various music work groups articles, but often need a change- a break. I was wondering, exactly, how you came to edit articles about highways, and get information about them, and in particular, where you upload your maps from. Can you let me know?

Also take note of its use in the other Southern Railway-related articles. --Bulleid Pacific (talk) 23:14, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Hi there. I am preparing to review one or more of your older GA noms. I've not done transport GAs before, so it may take some adjusting.

Maryland Route 355
That was a quick response. I have two outstanding issues, which I have covered at the talk page.

Golden State Freeway
In regards to your comments on the merge discussion, I've added a new "Early history" section which is specific to the Golden State Freeway. There's certainly more to go, but it's a start and the content would be inappropriate for the Interstate 5 article. You might want to have a look.--Oakshade (talk) 05:07, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

MD 97
OK, I'm happy with those final changes and have passed it. It may be a few days before I can get to the other MDs I tagged toi undertake, as I've let a couple things go that I was going to do.

 * Actually, what would be great would be if you lookat MD 313 and MD 2 to see if they have a statement about the general purpose of the road, and an explicit statement of the first designation of the route, as was just done at 97.

GAR for Low Frequency radio range
Hi Dough, thank you for your review. I am working on all your items, but in the meanwhile, I have a question about your item #1, "Citations are not supposed to be in the lead as it is supposed to be a summary of the article." The current MOS guideline for lead citations says, among others: "The necessity for citations in a lead should be determined on a case-by-case basis by editorial consensus. Complex, current, or controversial subjects may require many citations; others, few or none." It does not say that "citations are not supposed to be in the lead." Would you mind checking this point? If you'd like, I can start a thread about this on WT:LEAD. I don't mind either way, I just want to get it right. Thanks again, Crum375 (talk) 01:40, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I have completed addressing all your items, except #1 which needs clarification per above. Thanks again for your work. Crum375 (talk) 22:39, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Since most of the edits you suggest are rather minor and none are isurmountable, requiring mostly minor edits to fix, how about giving me a couple days to fix them before an instant fail? --Kumioko (talk) 17:10, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I understand, at the moment there are a couple of editors bickering about the use of a word so its probably better if that settles down first. I left them a little message, so hopefully they'll knock off that nonesense and address these other conscerns. --Kumioko (talk) 17:25, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Laurence Harbor (NJT station)
I noticed this instance fail and I have some concerns. From here, your #1 point is not a GA requirement. It can easily be fixed. Your #2 point is unnecessary, as one picture is enough, and sometimes GAs lack pictures. Your #3 point is wrong, as they are from multiple individuals and thus discuss different parts. Furthermore, notability is not a GA concern. #4 is a misreading of stable, which merely means that there are no edit wars. GAs constantly change after their rankings, especially when people expand them for FAC. I would suggest you reopen the GAN and take another look. If not, I shall do it instead. Ottava Rima (talk) 01:33, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but that "discussion" is not consensus. One says it would fail, another says there is nothing specific. Consensus requires multiple people. Furthermore, stability is a joint requirement between GA and FAC, and changing one would force the changing of the other. There has been no discussion to this at FAC. Please adjust accordingly. Ottava Rima (talk) 01:50, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I just wanted to point out also that the discussion comes from 2007. I've just been keeping eye on some of the GANs lately because of sweeps causing all sorts of problems. It is best to help get things going instead of having a whole line up of problems (and the transportation articles have had some problems with GAN, another reason why I hate roads and the rest :) ).

NJ 109
Why did you call NJ 109's intersections with CRs non-notable? It is an extremely small state route, so these intersections wold be considered notable, in my opinion. ~  EDDY  ( talk / contribs / editor review ) ~ 12:33, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, the SLD is flat out wrong. (I vacation in the area. I know.) But is that a reason to get rid of Madison Street and Texas Avenue intersections? I agree, with most NJ routes, 600-series county routes are unimportant. The keyword is most-- 109 is 3 miles long! For other short, other one-county routes such as NJ 147 list 600 series county routes as major intersections, and some of 147's intersections are messed up in the SLDs as well. ~  EDDY  ( talk / contribs / editor review ) ~ 12:46, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay, take NJ 83. If we remove the county routes, it will have two intersections. Why are you on such a spree of deleting CRs? CRs which are longer than such short roads such as County Route 603 (Cape May County, New Jersey) list county routes as major intersections. 83, 109, and 147 are little more than county routes themselves. ~  EDDY  ( talk / contribs / editor review ) ~ 13:09, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Avenue of the Saints
Aside the name and route number being reversed, could you explain how AotS is different than Trenton Freeway? AotS was created in the early 1990s, while IA 27 wasn't designated until 2001; MO 27 was designated shortly thereafter to match IA 27. Also, if IA/MO 27 are separate from AotS, how would MO 27 be different from I-74 in Iowa? (You supported a merge to I-74.)

Given these examples, your position at AotS is confusing to me. --Fredddie™ 01:59, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

I don't think Great Bay Boulevard makes sense for S4A since the S4A information is in the 87 article and Great Bay Boulevard could easily be mentioned there.

 * Ah yes, you've been on a roll with US Routes. :D - with 30, 40, 202 and 322 out of the way (along with 1/9 Truck). Just leaves 1, 1 BUS, 9, 22, 46, 130 and 206.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(The Password is... See here!) 20:59, 29 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, 130 is rather simple. 206 may be another story. 1 is shorter than all four, and 9 will be a total annoyance.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(The Password is... See here!) 21:03, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I will help with 206 where necessary.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(The Password is... See here!) 21:19, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

So where we stand
Neither of us got much accomplished this week. We have the weekend and the end of the semester coming up, so we should work towards finishing.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 03:58, 7 November 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, I didn't know that, but seeing US 22 unfinished, I am sure you didn't have time. So don't worry. I need to do 138 and 140 soon.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 04:04, 7 November 2009 (UTC)


 * I know there's no deadline, but I am itching to get thris done, so I need to get moving on articles. I mean 25 still stands, and there's apparently a ROW of NJ 75 i need to go photograph,along with 69 and 178, so its annoying.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 04:30, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Yay, progress!
Nice work on US 22! I need a mention of NJ 11 though :P. I was on a busy streak this week: 140, 157, 138, 133, 177 and 303 this week alone I believe. We should keep this pace :D. As a bonus, only two active state routes are stubs. :D NJ 347 and NJ 33 Business (which will be in the next day or so). So let's keep a good pace. Doing US 46 next or US 206? I will help with 206 if necessary,because I have lots of photos and experience. For me: 33 BUS, 153, 26, 32, 82 and 67 are in the ready portions for next week.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 00:31, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Huh? Whoopsie. :| It would be easier to get an image in if 122 wasn't one of the 7 routes in Northern NJ I still need to photograph directly. Uploading really crappy sign image. Most of the freeways are done (SR freeways) - I have 4 of the decommissioned ones to do still (11, 14, 60, 75). Don't know what to do afterwards.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 00:47, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
 * 14 is done :D - Just three left to go, the problem is, 11 is going to be an annoyance. 60 and 75 should be no problem.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 03:06, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Rubbin it in.
I noticed while reading my printout of the Route 27 article, you misspelled the street I live on :P - if you can find it, you'll laugh. :P - And on to other business 26 is done, more of annoyance then I expected.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 14:32, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Heh its ok. Having fun with you :P - Anyway, my semester ends on December 18, so at that point I will have a lot more time. Right now, I've sliced 26, which was a large hurdle off of my end of the bargain. 25 will be even harder.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 00:25, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Ok. I have been working for straight hours on the state highways in nj list, which is up to 120 kb in size already. If you come on IRC, I can show you how its going.

Nice on US 130, other things, IRC?
Hey there. Nice job on U.S. Route 130.Now we have the harder fish to fry for last (9 and 206) outside of 1 and 1 Business. I have not accomplished much this week outside of normal stuff. I have been staring all week at NJ 92 as if it was mocking me. I have no idea why. Anyway, we're getting closer. I have the 51, 153 and 169 sandboxes still waiting, so we'll see. I am also putting the thought of putting Darlington's Bridge at Delaware Station and Yardley-Wilburtha Bridge (when re-written) in as backups to 39 and 163, but that's not set in stone yet. If you can come on IRC, i'd like it.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 02:49, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

Hey there man. Great job on 1 & 1/9. As a result, I will do you a favor. I'll take US 1 Business off your hands so you can go to the other important roads (9, 206, 78, 80).

Re; Old shields
Imagery from the 30s to the 50s of shields from all different places. However, several are on books.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 18:43, 28 December 2009 (UTC)


 * This shows a different design in 1937, but also there is on on the NJDARM historical stuff - you'll have to find it - it shows NJ 26 and NJ 25 signage using the similar design. I don't have the link right now. The 203 shields backs up the newer design, but says Skyline instead. Others include the pic on the cover of Highland Park: A Borough of Homes with an NJ 27 shield.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 18:50, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

Book update
Cool news. I've been checking updates, its getting there. As a bonus. We can choose a color and any image of our choice. They have image choices, but its somewhat limited. Right now I was looking at using either the Interstate 173 pic, the SHR 13 stamp on NJ 27, or one displaying a shield in a public form. What's your ideas.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 20:36, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * As I said the book creator thing gives a limited choice of images. It would take a while to link them all. Also the Marlton Circle is pretty bad condition.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 21:02, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * By the way - does 347 plan on ever getting expanded? I know I've been lazy on 71, but my computer is in the shop and I am waiting for it to get fixed. I probably could do 71 tonight.<FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE="-1" COLOR="red">Mitch</FONT>32(A fortune in fabulous articles can be yours!) 21:11, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
