Talk:Vienna, New York

message: Does this town have anything to do with Billy Joel's song, Vienna?
:According to this site, that song is either about his father in Vienna, Austria, or using that Vienna as a metaphor for a place where an artist goes to "make it".
:It's unlikely that Vienna, New York ever inspired a song - it's a town in the official sense, but not what you'd think of when you think of a "small town".  Virtually no one would ever say they were "from Vienna" or "going to Vienna", unless they were referring to the hamlet of Vienna, which is just a few houses and a state highway maintenance building surrounding a sleepy rural intersection.  But who knows - there's a The Notorious B.I.G. rhyme that mentions the equally sleepy rural locale of Bridgeport, New York. AKADriver 18:03, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Saying they are completely unrelated is somewhat incorrect, but there is about 8 years worth of information missing so its understandable. Data East Pinball was Stern Electronics in everything but name. Basically after Stern Electronics died the assets were picked up by Data East and Gary Stern was put at the helm, he was the one that made it happen anyway. When Data East was falling apart they transfered their US operations to Sega, including the pinball division in Chicago (everything at the time went through San Jose but the factory was still in Chicago IIRC). When Sega went through their re-origination in 1999 they sold the division back to Gary Stern. Stern Electronics died in/around 1984 but the company that is now Stern Pinball is a direct decedent of Stern Electronics in everything but legal status, last I heard there was even a few staff left from the late 70's with Stern Pinball now). You are correct in asserting that this article needs work, and I would be glad to write it but I haven't been able to find anything like a reliable source for much of this information.

thread_title:  Tone? 

message: The info-box has Ouida down as French-British.
Although her father spoke French, he was from Guernsey, which is a Crown dependency, not part of France.  This would not give her French nationality, unless, for some reason, her father actually held French nationality.
She was not born in France, her mother was not French and she did not marry a Frenchman, so the other "normal" methods of obtaining dual nationality do not apply.
Is there a Reliable Source for this dual nationality?  Alternatively, was it just something that Ouida claimed? The article does state that she "identified with the French" but this does not grant anyone nationality.

I am going from the status given by the GNB, who are the official arbiters in the state of NSW as to what is a suburb and what is not. According to them, Illawong is a neighbourhood within Menai. To settle this whole thing, I've sent them this email:

Subject: Status of Illawong in the Sutherland Shire as either a suburb

Hi GNB,
Can you please clarify the status of Illawong, New South Wales, in the
Sutherland Shire?
Within your online database, it is listed as a neighbourhood (
http://www.gnb.nsw.gov.au/place_naming/placename_search/extract?id=MackFxsyIt ) , but on the
Wikipedia we keep getting people who believe it is a suburb.
E.g. see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illawong%2C_New_South_Wales and
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Illawong%2C_New_South_Wales
Can you please confirm Illawong's status? Can you also please clarify
whether there are any plans to review this status in the near future?
Kind Regards,
Nick.

message: The article states "The support Doc gives to Sarkozy is the more surprising since his lifestyle seems to be in direct contradiction with the politician's ideas." What in particular about this person's lifestyle is in direct contradiction with Sarkozy's ideals? If this artist's support is surprising then this is important information.
Thank you,
Rjan
The artist's support can be considered in direct contradiction to the politician's ideas because of his drugs lifestyle, alledged 'sell out' in his terrible last album (musically - sales were awful, and he was dropped from his label), and his general history of malevolant behaviour. Furthermore, he comes from poor parisian suburbs, where Sarkozy is a figure reviled, due partly to some of his comments, both about immigrants and the suburbs in question.
