I noticed the same error 3 months ago and sent a comment to the webmaster
(Derek?) at fatkid.com directly.
I never did get a response, nor does it appear that the error was corrected.
As much as I enjoyed fatkid.com, it doesnt appear to place a high priority
on accurate information.
Dont get me wrong, I think fatkid.com is a great contribution to this
community.
But keep in mind ... This is a FREE website. Dont expect alot from it, and
dont always trust that the information is 100% accurate. Take it for what
its worth.
