I'm often fascinated by uber-footnotes in history; either in pictures (eg. who's the woman in the picture they always show kneeling over the body at Kent State?) or otherwise (eg Raymond Jones - to quote Wikipedia: The Beatles had recorded the 'My Bonnie' single with Tony Sheridan in Germany...Epstein's version of the story was that a customer—Raymond Jones—walked into the NEMS shop and asked Epstein for the "My Bonnie" single, which made Epstein curious about the group.") Who are these people? Has anyone ever interviewed them? That should be a whole book, interviews with these footnote people. There's millions of 'em. - SEE XMASTIME FOOTNOTES HERE.Today is the 59h anniversary of Rosa Parks refusing to give up her seat on the bus. Who was the white guy she refused to give up her seat to?
