NSDC

I don't think we can NSDC as a source. Forbes reports,

  • Results may be skewed due to unconsolidated data of national and affiliate groups, rounding or incomplete information. *Total compensation, which may include benefits, one-time payments and deferred compensation, is based on latest available information. In some cases, sum is for a different year. Top pay may not be that of listed top person. 1Charitable services as percent of total expenses. 2Percent of private support tremaining after fundraising expenses. 3Percent of private support remaining after surplus. A negative number indicates private support exceeded surplus. NA- Not available. - Ratio increase from previous reported period. - Ratio decrease from previous reported period. - Same as previously reported period. - No comparable [1]

Dates

Somebody wrote 14 days, starting at October 14th, it was actually October 15th. Plus, that makes Thirteen Days, which is the title of Robert Kennedy's book, as well as the Feature Film on the Crisis. Just something I noticed. Mskreuz 19:25, 30 May 2007 (EDT)

Photography

Not being disrespectful, but as the author wrote "Satelite technology was in its infancy." It was, and the satellites where VERY primative, not capable of delivering that quality of photography. There may have been one or two test runs of taking photography late in the Cold War, but the primary method of gathering photography was through the U-2 Spy Plane. Just to clear that up. Thanks!

Including Images

I was thinking it'd be cool to include some of the U-2 photography, but it doesn't look like the system will let me. From what I read, it looked like the admins were okay with it, but I don't know... Mskreuz 13:20, 31 May 2007 (EDT)
