The "Additional references" section was just too long and wasn't adding anything to the article. Some of them are already in the ref section, so are duplicates. I've copied them here, so if anyone wants to expand the article with information from these refs, they can be used. Thanks! -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs)05:49, 5 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
