    Listening to your program: your guest contradicted you regarding "Taliesin" being an ancient Welsh poet: that is correct. Where he got the idea that the word means "brow of the hill," I don't know. A quick Google search will provide information on the poet, from both open and closed sites.

    There was no island yet until the Army Corps of

    Engineers severed from the Bronx the Manhattan Peninsula.
