Sorry about stumbling out of the gate!.......
editHi:
I want to be involved! This is exciting. You may have found another note (I think I probably entered it in the wrong place).
For this "talk":
1...I have a 5-year track record with another International web site. If you wish to review my efforts to collect data, please advise and I will provide the address of the web site.
2...I am a 4th generation resident of the Metro KC market.
3...I have significant and deep knowledge of past and present information -- enhanced by more than 20-years as a working journalist (graduate William Allen White J-School, U. of KS).
4...I work and am busy in the "paying/real" world...so if I go away for several days at a time, I have not given up. Of course, I know you can "fire" me and I can resign.
5...Since I started looking at stuff in Kansas City, Kansas or KCK, could I stay with that one subject/city until we agree in its data -- which has both errors and is lacking much important information? (Example: It is one of only 33 entities in the USA with a consolidated city-county government refered to be locals and the news media as simply the "Unified Government" or "UG".) This lessens the often maddening confusion people have with two Kansas Citys.
That's enough for now. Hope this helps you get to know me a little bit!
