Hobart's Guide to Life

The current version of this page includes a reference to "Hobart's Guide to Life - in press". I am unable to find any reference to this book on sites such as Amazon.com and alibris.com. Further, "in press" implies that the book is being printed, but leaves the possible interpretation that it was under development, which certainly would not qualify it as a "Publication". I am removing it, but welcome anyone who can provide a more meaningful citation to restore it with information such as ISBN or where it is available. --Spril4 21:48, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Nobel Peace Prize nomination

• Over the years, Hobart has received many awards including being nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999,

Being nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize is an honor, but it is not official or even prestigious. Any national legislator or about a third of the university professors in the world can make a nomination, and there have been as many as 140 some years. Nominators are requested to keep their nominations secret, so it's only those wishing publicity who make announcements, and more often it is impossible to verify. I see no reason to keep it. No offense to the subject, this is a general Nobel Peace Prize "nominees" issue. -Will Beback · † · 09:30, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Sons

Could anyone tell me the names of Hobart's sons please? I know of Justin through his work as a musician, but that's all. 82.18.203.85 (talk) 18:05, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
