User talk:Just-saying2012

The sentence about the church, which was incorrectly identified as being a remnant of an early hangar, may need to come out. I merely corrected the inaccuracy about it being a converted hangar.
 * Hi. This comment should have been posted to my talk page, as I was the one who wrote that.  I certainly would have noticed it sooner.  I filled in some of that article because it was in need of content, perhaps without doing some fact-checking first.  The Fairbanks North Star Borough's Historic Preservation Commission placed plaques around town last year, I believe in preparation for another round of National Register of Historic Properties nominations.  They claim that the Arctic Bowl building is the only building remaining from Weeks Field, which is questionable (there may be other non-hangar buildings still extant, such as the former home of Smith Security at 751 9th Avenue).  I think it's safe to say that both the church and 2 Dice are not from that period, despite their resemblance to airplane hangars.  Old photos show Gillam Airways to be housed in a nearly identical-looking building in a nearly identical location to 2 Dice.  I wasn't 100 percent sure, so I asked around a few places.  It wasn't until I glanced at a biography of Harold Gillam published last year that I realized it wasn't the same building.  A conversation with Ben Carpenter, the owner of 2 Dice, confirmed that.RadioKAOS (talk) 02:14, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
