Sanger has been permanently blocked from editing Wikipedia, the website I named and led in 2001. Yes, really. I can hear you asking, “How?

The founder of Wikipedia was indeed banned from the web site he started for not being enough of a Left Wing nut.

As to the Wikipedia account of the Fabulous Forbes, it reads in pertinent part:

"Mr Forbes is tall, handsome, fit, lightly tanned, charming, gracious, affluent. However, his most conspicuous virtue is his humble demeanor."
