Info source[edit]

Just heard the blurb on KTTV news. Bill Wright - (talk) 04:59, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Aged 84 before his 84th birthday?[edit]

Excerpt from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlton_Heston Born John Charles Carter October 4, 1924(1924-10-04) Evanston, Illinois, USA

Which would mean he would have needed to survive until 2008-10-04 to be 84.

Excerpt: Died April 5, 2008 (aged 83) Beverly Hills, California, USA

He was 83 years, 6 months and one day old. --202.168.102.96 10:44, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'd actually go for what the family is saying, and news releases, before Wikipedia, you know, since we're a news site and Wikipedia can be unreliable. The news sources say 84, he was 84. If anything, that should resolve that stupid dispute at Wikipedia. TheCustomOfLife - (talk) 11:38, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Un-needed and un-cited statement removed.[edit]
