wheat germ and blackstrap molasses[edit]

Could he have played the character on one ep of Our Miss Brooks who ate wheat germ and blackstrap molasses & stood on his head with yogic intentions?

Extremely belated reply, but the wheat germ and blackstrap molasses guy was Gayelord Hauser, covered in Fads and Fallacies: In the Name of Science... AnonMoos (talk) 11:40, 5 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Birth year 1915?[edit]

I found an invitation to his 90th Birthday that took place in 2000. http://tomrodgers.org/GypsyBootsInvitation.htm Schmiteye 21:38, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, he is listed in a SF Births database [1] as -

What were his parents' names? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.0.126.15 (talk) 19:56, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Health Hut?[edit]

Where was the Health Hut located? The implication is that it was somewhere in L.A. or Hollywood, but it should be specified. funkendub 03:34, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Article name[edit]

I have moved this article back to its original name, "Gypsy Boots". It's absurd & ridiculous to have it under a name that hardly anybody knows -- and contrary to the naming guidelines, which very sensibly say to use the most common name, as we do in most cases. (For example, "Groucho Marx" instead of "Julius Henry Marx", and "Yip Harburg" instead of "Edgar Yipsel Harburg".) I just ran a series of Google searchs, with the following results:

597 for "robert bootzin"; 364 for "robert bootzin" -wikipedia
313 for "boots bootzin"; 146 for "boots bootzin" -wikipedia
26,900 for "Gypsy Boots"; 26,000 for "Gypsy Boots" -wikipedia

I rest my case.

wife[edit]

It doesn't seem to me to be relevant that he was survived by "his former wife... a Lutheran"PurpleChez (talk) 22:51, 23 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
