I have finished creating nodes for all entries in Fears' Mark Twain Day 
By Day.  Formatting is inconsistent as I started incorporating DBD 
entries a few years ago.  The earliest were actually from PDFs that 
Fears provided me with.  Most were scrapped from the CMTS site with its 
uncomfortable and inconsistent formatting.  It is only in the years 1909 
and 1910 that I scanned a printed volume.  Rather than the dated entries 
I think his indexing  is of the greatest utility for me but they do 
provide an excellent time-line.  I understand that there are many errors 
in Fears' work, but I believe that this is to be expected in something 
as massive as his undertaking.  I would actually like to have 
knowledgeable people comment and contribute content to point out and 
possibly correct these errors but I cannot allow anonymous users this 
capability.  They are now limited to contacting me, only.  Should any 
Twain scholars want to be involved they will need to register for an 
account on the Twain's Geography site.
