No they're not. And Tovar wasn't a silent film actress...

Loni Nest ist TOT. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loni_Nest Somebody care to do an updated list? Must be rather short now.

What a vile remark to make. Even if you don't agree with the decisions that IDS has made in his position, what role did his mother play in any of it? Stay away from your keyboard and stop posting shite you odious cretin.

Banning guests from posting should have been DL's New Year resolution...

Sad news.One of the more decent political journalists .Why couldn'tte be one of the many right wing bastards? RIP Oh go and take a shower you red bastard!

Boom! Alicia Rhett dead at 98 (apparently actually born 1915). http://www.startribune.com/entertainment/movies/238671641.html

Hear, hear!

Are you Biggs son, close relative or a fraud ? Critical Divide is the real deal representing Ron. No one (except Ron and any other surviving members of the gang) knows who actually beat up Jack Mills and David Whitby. I'm sure CriticalDivide can confirm that. Whatever happened to the other gang members anyway they dead or some still alive ? Very sad what happened to jack mills his life was ruined. Out of the 17 people who got a share from the Great Train Robbery, 4 are dead, 3 were never caught, and the rest are believed to be alive (They might've faded into obscurity and died without anyone noticing.) In Order of Importance: Bruce Reynolds - Leader - Alive Douglas "Gordon" Goody - Deputy - Alive Charles F. Wilson - Treasurer - Died 1990 Ronald C. Edwards - Organizer - Died 1994 Brian A. Field - Informant and purchaser of gang's hideout - Died 1979 "Ulsterman" - Informant and organizer - Unknown Roy James - Getaway Driver - Died 1997 John Daly - Train stopper - Alive Bill Jennings - Carriage uncoupler - Alive James E. White - Quartermaster and carriage uncoupler - Alive "Alf Thomas" - Muscle - Unknown Roger J. Cordrey - Train stopper and electronics expert - Alive Bob Welch - Organizer and muscle - Alive Thomas Whisbey - Muscle - Alive James Hussey - Muscle - Alive "Frank Munroe" - Muscle - Unknown Ronnie Biggs - Found someone who could drive the train after the robbery - Alive (Barely) It might be worth revisiting this list for DDP purposes. Douglas Goody will get a newspaper mention when he dies. He's been saying he will name the Ulsterman. That could be interesting. That article says John Daly died in May. Thames Valley Police website has interesting bios for all the robbers. All are marked as deceased bar Goody, Welch and Wisbey. http://www.thamesvalley.police.uk/aboutus/aboutus-museum/aboutus-museum-gtr/aboutus-museum-gtr-gang.htm Many articles on the net state that Goody is "very ill". Perhaps a more justifiable replacement for Biggs?

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/real-life-stories/great-train-robbery-meet-man-1980741 According to this article, there are "believed" to be only 3 great train robbers now left - Wisbey, Welch and Goody. Question is then, what the bloody hell happened to the few that are unaccounted for? i.e. Daly, Jennings, White, Cordrey, Leonard Field and Wheater Can only find death details for 8 thus far - Boal, Brian Field, Wilson, Edwards, James, Hussey, Reynolds and Biggs

Havelange, why not

Harold Camping has died according to rumours on Facebook and Twitter. Apparently took another stroke 5 days ago and passed away on his couch yesterday evening...

Billy!

As I just posted directly above, 4 minutes before you did... with the exact same link. #MONG

1) OoO said WWI "ERA" veteran, which means he served in other conflicts during or around the time of WWI, but not necessarily related. 2) Poland didn't have conclusive birth/death records then if I'm correct, which makes it just about impossible for the GRG to verify him.

Well asides from absolute imbeciles who have nothing better to do than vandalise Wikipedia, and wait for a DL reaction.... It appears at least one of them wasn't a hoax: Eleanor Parker DEAD at 91 > http://www.salon.com/2013/12/09/actress_eleanor_parker_dies_at_91/

Nobel laureate Sir John Cornforth's page was edited yesterday to say "my grandad passed away this morning blah blah blah"... either the media are really slow or it was a hoax. Actress Eleanor Parker's page was edited tonight to say she had passed. Also seeing a few tweets emerging... worth keeping an eye on! EDIT: Silent-era actress Carla Laemmle's page edited to say she died today as well. And so we wait... God our media are shit, or I'm gullible. One of the two.

Disagree. Remove Pete Seeger, Henry Kissinger, Nicholas Parsons - all are in excellent health. The rest should stay.

Not a big fan of fat feminist pigs. That's just me though.
