Talk:Fonda, New York

message: I just have a question: I live in Fonda, and according to the historical plaque we have in the village, Fonda is named after John Fonda ( first name may be wrong) who formed a tavern in this part of what was Tryon County, and not for the reason (nor the person) that is listed on the article.

message: The statement regarding the attack confuses Ossernon on the south side of the river with Caughnawaga on the north. Tekakwitha was born in Ossernon. It was attacked by the French and burned. The inhabitants relocated to Caughnawaga. With help from Christian people of her nation who visited Caughnawaga from Kanawake, she fled from Caughnawaga to Kanawake. --Old Sigma   Comment from 21:10, June 21, 2015‎  by 71.178.128.102 Moved by Meters (talk) 04:06, 11 August 2015 (UTC)

Talk:The Signal-Man

message: From the article - "who would today be referred to as a signalman" (emphasis added).  Today (that is, 2008 rather than (say) 1980), the person in question would be referred to as a "signaller", thanks to the irresistable march of Political Correctness - I would suggest that we either change "signalman" to "signaller" (but alias the link, as Signaller is about the military position), or change "today" to something like "in the twentieth century". 78.105.161.182 (talk) 14:40, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: A debatable point, of course, and I'm sure one that many people have strong views on.  However, our priority should be factual accuracy - we should reflect the world as it is, rather than as we'd like it to be.  In any official Network Rail or RAIB or ORR or DfT document, he'd be a "signaller" today.  My main issue is with "today" rather than "signalman", when it comes down to it - would you agree with keeping "signalman" and changing "today" to "in the twentieth century" or "in modern language"? 78.105.161.182 (talk) 16:23, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd have no issue with you changing "signalman" to "signaller" in the article, because I accept that that's the term used today (on Network Rail). I was just pointing out that 'PC' claims that "signalman" is sexist are phoney. –Signalhead < T > 16:42, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  "Signalman" 

message: Must disagree about the section on the Staplehurst crash as a possible basis for the story. This section seems to be written in a perfectly appropriate style. The only question is whether non-factual reporting of this kind is suitable for an encyclopedic entry. If not, then the section should simply be deleted. I can’t see that a stylistic re-draft would change anything.
 
To me, it seems highly likely that Dickens’ harrowing experience at Staplehurst would have put this theme in mind as a topic for ghost-fiction. It is on the same level as unprovable but long-held theories about some of his female characters being based on his mistress Ellen Ternan, or his beloved sister-in-law who died young and is assumed to have inspired Little Nell. These theories are freely aired on Wikipedia. Valetude (talk) 16:14, 25 April 2015 (UTC)

message: Nuclear agency head dismissed for lapses
By H. JOSEF HEBERT, Associated Press Writer
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/nuclear_dismissal
WASHINGTON - Tens of millions of dollars and repeated security reviews haven't stopped embarrassing security breakdowns in the government's nuclear weapons program — and now the man in charge has been sent packing.
Energy Secretary Samuel Bodman on Thursday ousted the head of the National Nuclear Security Administration, which maintains the nuclear weapons stockpile and oversees the nation's weapons research laboratories.
"I have decided it is time for new leadership at the NNSA," Bodman said in announcing that the agency's chief, Linton Brooks, would resign within the month....
[T]he rash of security problems ... include the disappearance of two hard drives containing classified material that later were found behind a copying machine and the disappearance of two computer disks that forced a virtual shutdown of Los Alamos. It later was learned the two disks never existed.
Among other incidents were lost keys to classified areas containing highly enriched uranium, use of less secure e-mail systems to transmit classified material, scientists losing track of vials of plutonium and the alleged improper use of government credit cards.
