Should some of the lists in this article be converted into prose? RJFJR (talk) 16:22, 23 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

VC term date

Yellen's 4-yr term as Vice Chair started on Oct 4, 2010. However, her 14-yr term as governor technically started on Feb 1, 2010, as noted in http://senate.gov/pagelayout/legislative/one_item_and_teasers/nom_confc.htm. --Emjaymem (talk) 01:46, 20 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Jew?

Is she jewish? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.101.224.234 (talk) 14:59, 30 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Of course she is. 101.51.229.142 (talk) 00:32, 19 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Uh, i think "Of course she is", from a one edit IP, must raise more doubt than it calms! A simple Google search only heightens the doubt, with the leading entries coming from sites belonging to Jewish-conspiracy paranoids.
Thanks to the colleague who found a high-credibility site that confirms this insignificant fact.
