message: The story regarding John Grindell (Worturpa station) and George Snell (Yankaninna station) seems to be a very muddled one. Warren Bonython's book and the Royal Geographical Society pamphlets say that Snell suspected Grindell of rustling Yankaninna stock, and that Grindell murdered him for this knowledge. Adrian Heard's book and the online page from southaustralianhistory.com.au say that Grindell suspected Snell of rustling Worturpa stock, and murdered him in revenge. The book Cloud over the Gammon Ranges is referenced more than once as a story of these accounts, but I can't find this book in any libraries, so I'm a little confused about what happened short of delving into the microfilm and newspaper accounts. Until I do, I've tried to be ambiguous here and used the online source as that is by far the most detailed and apparently valid account. Itsonlyme 12:09, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

I've removed a line on climbing from 'The Area' (which title suggests  material on the geography of the place) and will insert it in modified form in the article on 'The Cairngorms' - under 'leisure' - a better home for it I'd suggest.Geopersona (talk) 20:49, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Chicago Daily News

message: I grew up in the Suburbs of Chicago in the 1950's and 1960's and we subscribed to The Chicago Daily News. Being an afternoon paper we would read it when we came home from school and in the evening. It was a 6 day a week newspaper so we would buy The Chicago Tribune at the store on Sundays. I remember Sydney Harris's Column in The Daily News most because it was titled Things I Found While Looking For Something Else. This is pretty much a side benefit of all internet searching. We grew up reading this newspaper to get a perspective on Chicago and the World. There was our local newspaper The Woodstock Sentinel and the quality of The Chicago Daily News was evidently much richer than The Sentinel. I still remember the final front page headline of The Chicago Daily News "So Long Chicago!" on March 4, 1978. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by AllanMatthes (talk • contribs) 11:56, December 23, 2005 (UTC).
