Scrapbook

Here is a working list of names that are potential additions to this list. To avoid people working on the same names, you could pick a category and insert a note that you're working on those names. Remove any names you add to the main list. If you fail to find reliable sources, leave the name but make a note against it. Try to find some polio-related info to add to each entry: when they caught it, how did it affect them (short & long-term) physically and also their career choice, etc.

The categories aren't set in stone and some entries may be misplaced. If a new category is necessary, we need to find a picture to go along side it. Otherwise, the tables don't line up neatly. Colin°Talk 21:00, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
