Eliot Spitzer

Right at the top of the National Governor's Association page it says "Religion: Jewish" [1]. This is a good source for the claim in the article that Spitzer is Jewish. Best, Gwernol 17:44, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

No, there were two sources. The one above clearly states he is Jewish. The New York Times also states that he's Jewish. Did you read page 3 where is says: "Mr. Spitzer is Jewish, but his parents were not particularly religious and he did not have a bar mitzvah; Ms. Wall Spitzer was raised Southern Baptist. The couple celebrate the holidays of both religions with their three daughters but do not adhere rigorously to either."? Please stop removing properly sourced material from articles, and please leave comments on talk pages at the bottom of the page, not the top. Thanks. Gwernol 17:57, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi there.

Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 17:53, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Odd question

Why do you need to know which company I work for? It seems pretty rich for someone who posts under a pseudonym (at a rough guess) to demand personal details, which, frankly, you can get from google anyway. So, don't be lazy, google away. Clue I also build and race solar cars. Greg Locock (talk) 12:53, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
