Vincent - Thank you so much for fixing those abbreviations. I hadn't looked at the data when I wrote the bio very recently. It sure is a good illustration of what I have learned since starting out here - the bio has what seems (to this admittedly "ugly American") to be a very unnatural litany of city/town, county, state, country every time I state a place, but the data was incomplete and full of abbreviations!
Anne - please remember that the stories kept getting more and more exciting each time he told them ... there are sooooo many more, too. He was a real life-of-the-party type ... people I know who met him always said they could see where I got my rabble-rousing tendencies from.
