- ALT1: ... that Paul Thurmond, the youngest son of Strom Thurmond, was born when his father was 73 years old?
- ALT2: ... that Paul Thurmond was enrolled at The Citadel when he was only one month old?
New enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline except for ALT1, which I have struck out. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 14:23, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you. I moved the source saying Strom was 73 to the end of that sentence, so that one can be un-struck in case it's the one a promoter likes the best. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:52, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
- I've unstruck ALT1 because issues are already resolved. All hooks now well-verified, so promoter may choose any hooks. I would prefer ALT1 or ALT2; original hook is not appealing at worldwide standards. I added his family life, but I'm sure that it would not affect this review. --George Ho (talk) 22:12, 21 December 2012 (UTC)
