    In the section about Molly Ivins, you mentioned her friend, Texas governor Ann Richardson. I think that was a misprint and you actually meant Ann Richards. Someone like her really deserves to have her name printed correctly. :)

    Is Kirk Douglas dead? His picture is in the article Famous In Life, Noted In Passing but there is no blurb in the article. Also I find no reference to his dying anywhere online.
