Lee, welcome to Wikipedia! You've obviously got some impressive experience and I hope you can be persuaded to keep putting it to good use here. --LMS


Thank you, Larry! I'll do my best, although it's taking me awhile to get the hang of NPV and the mechanics of writing and linking articles. (pained look) F. Lee Horn


Re for example the line in conciliation:

Organized under Dispute resolution, Subjects Auxilliary to Law, Law, and Applied Arts and Sciences

I don't really see how this is particularly useful. I don't like the idea that subjects are necessary organized under other subjects. Links should just point to each other, and we can let people decide how to hierarchicalize them themselves! Why can't we just create "see also" lines and leave it at that? --LMS


Not a problem. Consider them gone!  :)


Wow--thanks! --LMS


Why "Wow?" I'm just trying to be as cooperative as I can. Hmmm. That wouldn't be some rather subtle sarcasm, would it???  ;)


Not at all! It's genuine amazement. --LMS


LOL! Amazing that *I* would comply so redily with what you asked, or that *anyone* on here would? (grin) F. Lee Horn


Could you check the minor revision I made to Special Operations Forces? I'm no expert in the area, but I was just trying to place the article into some context. --Robert Merkel


Robert...I couldn't see from the "view other changes" link where you had made any. Help? :) F. Lee Horn

Revision 2 contained my change, but you (I gather inadvertantly) overwrote in revision 3. Robert Merkel
I'm sorry, Robert! Please feel free to make any changes you feel are necessary. F. Lee Horn

Welcome to Wikipedia, Lee! You're working on so many new articles, it's just great. My dad retired after 40 years of working for the Army. He was a Certified Government Accountant, and was Assistant Comptroller at Fort Bragg for many years. So I grew up around Army brass. --Dmerrill


Dmerrill...thank you. Tell your dad I said hi.  :) F. Lee Horn


Sorry to say, he passed in 2000. --Dmerrill


I'm sorry to hear that! This seems to be happening at an alarming rate lately. I keep looking over my shoulder just in case that tall guy in the black robe and carrying the scythe is there! :(


FLH - as soon as someone else makes any editing change not marked as a 'This change is a minor edit' the previous Recent Change disappears (because it is moved to the top of the list). I think that I popped in and added a note on Larry's page (noting the capitalization problem) pretty soon after you left your note for him. I was not signed in at the moment, so it was just an ip number (I'm at school and if I close my browser I lose my sign in - I'm doing syllabus stuff today and have the browser gets closed periodicallY). --MichaelTinkler


Perhaps that's it then. Like I told Larry Sanger, it's probably something simple that I don't yet understand about Wikipedia. Thank you for your interest, Michael. F. Lee Horn


Hi. How are you doing? As I know you are a Vietnam veteran, first of all, I would like to thank you for your service. Second, I would be very interested to hear your opinion on the present situation in Iraq. Since you were an officer involved in conducting counterinsurgency operations, I'm sure that you would have some interesting observations on the occupation and counterinsurgency currently being conducted in Iraq.
