:I agree "infamous" was not a good choice, though I struggled more with that word than nearly any other in the article!  "Famous" sounded like something I'd use for Britney Spears... Maybe I need to just rephrase the whole thing.  Thanks for the spelling and grammar check on the rest of it. [[User:Steve Mount|Steve Mount]] 15:38, 4 April 2007 (CDT)

Regardless of your "side" in the revolution, I think the word is appropriate.]
