He is also credited with making Bill Cody and other Old West characters famous. http://www.xphomestation.com/nbuntline.html Top #2006 - 08/21/02 10:03 AM Re: Myth Faldage Carpal Tunnel Registered: 12/01/00 Posts: 13653 If the myth conflicts with the reality, print the myth. Are you saying that Wyatt Earp and the other famous Old West gunmen weren't really famous? That it's just a myth that they were famous?
