Alcorn State

I removed it because stating Alcorn State is not well known outside Mississippi is not a fact of any sort and it simply isn't relevant to the wiki page. The article you used to support that statement is over 20 years old and was not a credible source.

Not to enter into this conversation, but Alcorn State was most famous for being the alma mater of Jerry Rice, who probably held every receiving record in the NFL at the time he retired: http://www.clarionledger.com/story/sports/college/state-college/2014/10/10/alcorn-marks-years-since-big-win-mvsu/17015799/ Activist (talk) 23:51, 29 May 2016 (UTC)

    • p. 520 "Y has no pointers, structures, or multidimensioned arrays, but YC's abstract machine does not assume any such restrictions. Indeed, it cannot, for Y's call-by-call reference requires abstract machine pointers, and Y's procedure frames are essentially structures. The only significant additions likely to be required by other Algol-ike languages should be a few extended-precision types and operators for them."

Hi, dearest WhisperToMe, how are you?

I opened this new page now, it speaks about this interessant Russian Painter, and I ask some minute of your time to read it and to correct my mistakes.

Thanks a lot for your precious help!

Photo request reply

Sorry to inform you about this (and additionally sorry for the late reply), but I do not currently have a camera with good quality nor do I have enough time (busy with school and all) to take a request on shooting photos. My apologies. Soulbust (talk) 06:39, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

¶ Very sorry to have overlooked two of your messages to me from Jan 2016. I grew up in Miami, Fla., have not lived there since 1969. I do not take pictures. I am now a very retired lawyer & librarian in rural Delaware. Sorry I cannot be more helpful. Sussmanbern (talk) 03:51, 22 November 2016 (UTC)


Hi. Yes I do and can photograph Lafourche Parish, Louisiana. I go that way once a month, mainly northern but can travel any part of Parish, so please let me know what you need photos of and I will happily photo whatever you need.User:Z28scramblerZ28scrambler (talk) 21:15, 25 February 2017 (UTC)Z28scramblerZ28scrambler (talk) 21:15, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
