message: Neat quip about him being "turned into bronze" for looking back. I googled it, looking for something to cite, but the only references I can find are pages that are quoting Wikipedia. "Fact" tag added - citation would be great. (Comment from Rosuav) 122.110.204.15 (talk) 08:49, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

message: We have just had an infobox added to the article. It is entirely about Landy's time as governor. I believe that is placing undue weight on what historically will be regarded as the less significant part of Landy's life. It does not reflect the balance of the rest of the article, which hardly mentions his time as governor. 
That in itself is a problem in that what is in the lead about that time is disproportionate to the rest of the article. What we need is more info in the article itself about his governorship, and no infobox, unless it somehow covers a lot more of his life than just the 6 years as governor.
