[edit] Errors in Population Percenrages?

I am confused by the percentages listed under populations demographics ... they far exceed 100%, even given the 6+% of persons who are of mixed race. unsigned comment was added by 65.174.137.130 (talk - contribs) 11:47, 20 March 2004 (UTC).

Go check the sources yourself? Follow the CDP link? Lentower 16:45, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Octagon House part of Modern Times?

Isn't the Octagon building off Brentwood Road near the center of town a building of Modern Times? RahadyanS 14:26, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

That's my memory, but it shouldn't be added to the article until someone checks it out in a citable source. BTW, the Octagon building has been moved to the School grounds on Third Avenue, opposite the oldest water tower. Funds are being sought to stabilize it, then turn it into a historic classroom. At least as of five years ago, when I was last in Brentwood. Lentower 16:45, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. I'll confirm that with info from either the Brentwood Library or the Suffolk County Historical Society in Riverhead. RahadyanS 17:06, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Do we need a separate page for Modern Times?

The page Modern Times is essentially a copy of part of this page. Do we really need two separate pages like that? --Coppertwig 22:47, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

It's almost a copy of a section of the List of anarchist communities: Modern Times, so there are three copies. I'm suggest merging the Modern Times article here, and making it a redirect. This article is not that long, and the Modern Times article is very short. Modern Times (disambiguation) would also have to be updated
And leave the List of anarchist communities: Modern Times as it is. Lentower 02:09, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
