Hi. I just read your story about being stuck in Guatemala. It is very interesting and well written but one small part bothered me. As far as I know, Tikal predates any known versions of the Chac Mool. Were you referring to the depictions of captives? Sorry for being fussy, but I thought it might be important. --Joe Quick | Talk

Joe, good catch. I was confusing Tikal with Chichin Itza, a post-classic site that does have Chac Mools. I'll make the change in a little bit. Tom Cool 12:15, 9 March 2007 (CST)

Pittsburgh article

Tom, I'm confused about the Pittsburgh article. Why did you delete it? We are just starting to get editors since the launch. I'm no history or geography editor - but I lived in Pittsburgh for 2 years and trained at Childrens Hospital there, and was on faculty at the University of Pittsburgh. I'd be pleased to co-author a section on the history of the University and the city as a center for medical education. Has there been a complaint about the article that led you to come up with that template? Nancy Sculerati 18:09, 1 April 2007 (CDT)

Nancy, thanks for the encouraging note and email. I'm back in the game and I hope to make the History of Pittsburgh article even better. Tom Cool 20:11, 3 April 2007 (CDT)

Help on Pittsburgh

I'm a specialist on state and local history and will be happy to help out here on the editing. Richard Jensen 18:34, 1 April 2007 (CDT)

Give CZ a chance

Hey Tom, As someone also named Tom, you must be pretty cool. I hope you understand that CZ was just released to the public and has just started getting some major press coverage. We'll have more editors and experts soon who you can collaborate with. See you around the recent changes list -Tom Kelly (Talk) 18:40, 1 April 2007 (CDT)
