I have one besides the fact I like the Dots Miller reference in your first post, don't know how I missed it.

I was just saying to my dad today it's sad how few people care about baseball history and the proof was in two articles I wrote for the Pirates website I write for yesterday. A story about a rumor about Vicente Padilla pitching for the Pirates scouts down in Nicaragua gets picked up by tons of sites and plenty of people discuss it(took me about 30 minutes total to write the story,if that). I post a bio of Claude Ritchey early this morning that took about 3 hours to write/edit and it gets about 1/10th the amount of hits. Makes me a little sick how big of a difference there can be between those two stories.

Oh well, I guess years from now the Ritchey article will still be interesting to a select few, hopefully, for the hobbies sake.
