Plane Crash

Note at the bottom of the page indicates that Davis Love Sr. did not die in plane crash. However, the writer of the note did not edit the page to remove the reference. Although I am a resident of Brunswick/Glynn County (and was at time of crash), I do not recall coverage mentioning Mr. Love. I am editing the page to remove the reference, since it is in doubt.

I would hope Brunswick might be known for something other than the plane crash.

I discovered a reference to the death of Davis Love II, the father of Davis Love III, at the PGA tour web site.
The page is the biographical page of David Love III. It references his father's tragic death in a plane crash in 1988. The ASA crash was in 1991. It is possible that Davis Love, III's grandfather (Davis Love, Sr) was on the plane with John Tower, but I have yet been able to find a list of the passengers of the flight.


There were two different plane crashes. The one Davis Love the III was on left out of St. Simons Island to Jacksonville, (1988) not sure of the airline. The ASA flight was coming into Brunswick, GA from Atlanta (1991).

School info

I would like to know the source for the cited reasons for Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) probation. I suggest including SACS in the text, if this Board of Education info remains.

Sidney Lanier Bridge Tower Height

The plan page from GADOT dated Aug 96 showed elevation at the top of the support towers to be 460 feet. However, the GADOT web site shows the elevation to be 480 feet. Barring additional info, I changed it to reflect the web site info, on the theory that it was entered more recently and may reflect design changes after Sept 96. -WCFrancis 16:00, 3 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Another page on the GADOT site states "The towers are 486 feet tall from the top of the footing to the top of the tower." -WCFrancis 16:26, 3 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Howard Coffin Park

Is Howard Coffin Park named after Howard E. Coffin? Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 04:26, 8 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Well, it's not named after the Michigan senator. I'm going on out a little bit of a limb but this [1] makes me fairly certain that it's the right Howard Coffin. Any Brunswick Wikipedian care to take the dog for a run and look for a plaque at the park? --Wtshymanski (talk) 04:37, 8 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
Ok, it must be right. His article gives no mention of a connection to Brunswick, but the one you link to says "also known for his development of coastal Georgia, especially Sapelo Island and Sea Island)." I've been there a few times - I'll try to check it out sometime, but for now I think you are right. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 05:05, 8 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
A Liberty Ship built in Brunswick was named for Howard E. Coffin - I suspect there's a stronger linkage than that, but I've only been to Atlanta once for 20 hours so did not soak up a lot of Georgia history in that time. A midnight Web search didn't give a "History of Brunswick Parks" on the city's Web site. --Wtshymanski (talk) 14:30, 8 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hercules changes hands

In 2009, Hercules, Inc. was sold to TorQuest and renamed Pinova, Inc. In 2005, it was acquired by Symrise. In November 2016, it was announced that a French company called Dérivés Résiniques et Terpéniques (DRT) had purchased the business for $150 million.

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

  • http://www.roadtraffic-technology.com/projects/brunswick/
    Triggered by \broadtraffic-technology\.com\b on the local blacklist

If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.

From your friendly hard working bot.—cyberbot II NotifyOnline 10:29, 3 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

File:Yes check.svg Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II NotifyOnline 19:17, 9 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
