And now for a slight break from the xml/tei discussion... One nice thing about helping to add additional information to the PG catalog is that sometimes I end up learning about some person who I never would have run accross otherwise. The most recent example is Sidney L. Gulick As I read a little more about this man, I thought that this is someone I would not hesiate to call an American hero. He dedicated his life to international friendship and understanding, most notably instigating a program whereby over 12,000 "friendship dolls" were made by Americans and sent to Japanese schools. I've put together a wikipedia article about him and linked to it from his author record in the PG catalog. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sidney_Gulick
