[edit] Huh?

when a meteor is approaching Springfield in a Paul Bunyan portray What exactly does this mean? -DynSkeet (talk) 16:39, August 24, 2005 (UTC)

This is vandalism. It has been corrected.- Numbuh 3.14 (Dr. Green) 7:16, May 1, 2006 (UTC)

Actually, it wasn't vandalism, the metor was approaching in the episode when they ride a train to Delaware, whilst a hobo tells them stories. The metor was actually not dooming Springfield, it was headed toward an unnamed city, during the Paul Bunyon parody, which is what he probably wanted to say.

[edit] Autodialer

..the device is preprogrammed with all of the telephone numbers of the residents of Springfield. This is incorrect. I have rewritten this segment accordingly. --^pirate 19:42, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Inspiration for his name

I think that Professor Frink is not named after John Frink. In this link you can clearly see that the name "John Frink" appears in a 1996 episode, yet the article on John Frink the writer says he joined The Simpsons in 2000. - JSmith60 04:28, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Glaben, glaven or glavin?

Is there any official confirmation of what one of Frink's favoured gibberish words actually is? I personally thought it was 'glaben', whereas several websites say 'glaven', and the article on here says 'glavin'. Anyone? Alexrushfear 17:18, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Glavin is correct.
