Additional Notes [edit] In the film, Wild Bill Hickok often wears dark glasses. There is a factual basis to this characterization. In 1876, Hickok was diagnosed by a doctor in Kansas City, Missouri, with glaucoma and 'ophthalmia'. Actually, he was probably afflicted with trachoma, a common vision disorder of the time.

A jocular use of a form of the rhyme by a Southwest Airlines flight attendant, encouraging passengers to sit down so the plane could take off, led to a 2003 lawsuit charging the airline with intentional infliction of emotional distress and negligent infliction of emotional distress. Two versions of the rhyme were attested in court; both "Eeny meeny miny mo, Please sit down it's time to go" and "Pick a seat, it's time to go". The passengers in question were African American and stated that they were humiliated due to what they called the "racist history" of the rhyme. A jury returned a verdict in favor of Southwest and the plaintiffs' appeal was denied.[14]

A Pinball Wizard posted:same reason i sued my high school for holding a "class picnic." post racial america my rear end good news! this is apparently a false etymology! lol the people spreading that urban legend thing that people would make a day of lynchings, like take the kids down and hang a black guy while they'd just have a bunch of sandwiches and complain about ants http://www.snopes.com/language/offense/picnic.asp edit: super lol: quote:But Zaheer Mustafa, the equity officer, nevertheless decreed that "picnic" not be used because "the point is — the word offends." So the university decided to call it an "outing." Then, homosexual students took objection to that, and SUNY decided to publicize the event without using any noun to describe it.
