Although this article would be better dressed with inline citations, the information is accurate per the sources at the bottom, and was specifically written to avoid copyright violations amongst all the sources (because they all had similar information written in different ways). I no longer have access to those particular books, but if anyone feels that it's more important to double check this article than work on other ones, feel free. My editing skills have improved, and I now try to cite every point. This was a fairly early attempt on my part. Nonetheless, it's copyright-safe. TeamZissou (talk) 04:00, 19 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
