Meanwhile... from December 20, 1915 in a New York newspaper:

http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/ ... d-1/seq-1/

Who wrote that "Diary", Duncan for December 20th, 1915 that you just posted? The British equivalent of CNN, CBS, NBC or MSNBC news? :bigsmile:

Duncan brought my attention to the December 19 post on the chat today. But.. it wasn't exactly clear that this was headline stuff in that post. :oops:
