A fact from Peotone Mill appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 30 October 2006. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Peotone Mill, a windmill built in 1871, was donated to the village of Peotone, Illinois in 1982 after being idle for nearly a century, and was registered on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in the same year?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2006/October.

THis has been here since January of this year and wasnt removed until today: "Actually, it wasn't Freddie. It was infact Tyler John Kiefner the Fifteenthtwelfth. He built it using only 2,000 slaves who shared cat fur to keep them warm in the summer and cool in the winter (the Underarmour of 1970.) After Tyler built the mill by himself, he stormed the beaches of Normandy. He was too late - VE day was twenty years earlier than 5 years ago. The next part of this paragraph is for reading purposes only. " --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 13:57, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
