[edit] High School

Although there is a Centreville High school, it is in Clifton not Centreville. Wierd yes, but that is the case.Hokiefan 16:56, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

How about this?

"When he was six years old, his family began the first of a series of moves that would take him to Texas, Georgia, and eventually back to the suburbs of Washington, DC, where the family settled in Centreville, Virginia.

"There, Blair attended Centreville High School, where he became involved with the school newspaper and developed a passion for journalism."

A secondary source would be preferred, especially given the nature of Blair's current fame, but this primary one is a start, at least. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 11:36, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bluebell Colony

Centreville has one of the largest colonies of bluebells on the entire east coast. The area itselfin question is in Bull Run Regional Park which has a Centreville address. It should be added to the article somehow. Prince Wiliam Conservation Alliance Bluebell page Virginia Tech and WTOP Public Radio article on the Bluebells Zidel333 00:25, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Random number changes

If there are any regular editors monitoring this page, please note that for several months, anonymous editors have been randomly changing the thousands digits of dollar and population numbers. These changes do not appear to have been reverted in at least some cases, making this article factually wrong and getting worse. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 05:24, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Will do. Zidel333 18:37, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
