Information May Change Rapidly

I just looked at Wikipedia's entry about Libya. The first thing is a little box that says:

This article documents a current event. Information may change rapidly as the event progresses.

Following the links in that statement, you can get to the 2011 Battle of Tripoli.

School has started for some students at colleges and high schools. For other students, it will be just a few more days or weeks for them to get back to hitting the books. For them, this will most likely be a topic of much discussion. There's bound to be at least one teacher who gives an assignment to compare and contrast the American Revolution to the Battle of Tripoli.

Interesting to ponder that. What role did Paul Revere play? What role did Mark Zuckerberg play?
