Hi, I am reviewing this article and think that the article is fine as far as it goes. However, there is more information in the references that is not used in the article, particularly this one:[1] but also this one:[2] that could provide more of a flavor of his personality. I think the fact that he was 74 when he was rehired is significant. Also, I enjoyed some of the descriptions of his talents in those articles. Xtzou (Talk) 20:41, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
