thread_title:  Revise text on [[Navigation]]? 

message: "it is becoming common practice to also enter it into electronic navigation tools such as a Electronic Chart Display and Information System, a chartplotter, an ARPA system, or a GPS unit.[10]"
Could you revise the above statement, an ARPA (Automatic Radar Plotting Aid) is primarily used for collision avoidance, it is not a navigation tool as such. Also a GPS 'unit' will normally be used to provide positional data for an ECDIS or Chartplotter, they very rarely have the capacity to have a route loaded into them.
Thanks

message: I would like to see more here.  I had the privilege of attending lectures in Applied Maths and Artificial Intelligence by JGT in the seventies.  He was deliberately  controversial, but also amiable and inspirational.  I remember several of his lectures distinctly, 30 years later.  The other two Maths lecturers I remember with great fondness and respect are Clive Kilmister and F D Burgoyne.  They all made learning FUN.
I'm sure it was John Taylor who said "Some of us don't need religion - we have Star-Trek instead." Please correct this if I'm wrong. Sasha 18:32, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

His favorite place is in the middle of the Sahara desert, where there is no overhead power line causing interference to medical signals.

He climbs the steps of the Engineering Research Building everyday to stay in good physical shape.  He also uses this time to test his hot flash sensor, which monitors and records skin temperatures.

message: Two sentences regarding appearances on Last Comic Standing are confusing. The first sentence makes it sound like he won (as in first place) in the show's second season. The sentence right after that said he tied for 3rd place in the third season, and was runner-up (2nd place) "for Season 2."  Since "Season 2" is capitalized, perhaps that's another television show entirely, but if it's referring to the second season of Last Comic Standing, that seems to contradict the sentence right before it that says he won in the second season. The sentence in question:
Heffron has appeared on Comedy Central Presents, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and won the second season of Last Comic Standing.[1] He appeared as contestant of the third season of Last Comic Standing ranking third place with Rich Vos overall and runner-up for Season 2.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.238.69.41 (talk) 16:13, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

The leader did not object to the sentence of a year in prison passed against Keith Richards. The leader did assert that Mick Jagger, who was sentenced to three months in prison for possession of amphetamine (described as a "soft" drug) was hard done by, because he had putchased the drugs legally abroad and had them available on prescription in the UK.
