CalRis 13:34, 9 Nov 2004 (UTC): I removed the following entry: 1911 - Major Jimmie Erickson takes the first aerial photograph (over San Diego, California). The reason: aerial photographs have been taken well before 1911 (see this page for more information). It is not even true for aerial photography in the USA.

Toby Douglass 08:28, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC): I'd like to remove the Lorena Bobbitt entry. I feel this list should be composed of events of lasting historical interest. If there are no objections in a few days, I'll proceed.

Changed William F Cody to William F. "Buffalo Bill" Cody for clarification as this is the name most people will recognize.

Why is Alex Turner listed? According to the Wikipedia entry for him, he was born on 6 January, not today. (No offense, but is he even noteworthy enough to be listed at all?)

1988 - Travis Austin McDaniel, Decedent of Maj. Stanley C. McDaniel (d.1945)
