How does one go about contacting whoever is in charge when you see an error in the lyrics database?
Example: "Pencil Thin Mustache"

"Andy Divine"; should be "Andy DEVINE"
"Earol Flynn"; should be "ERROL Flynn"
"Brylcream"; actually the trademark name was "BRYLCREEM"

Granted, these are just misspellings. But I'm reasonably sure that there are others involving incorrect words, etc. that may emerge from time to time. So who do we report these to?

The person who runs the website? That's my only guess.

Now, if this were a Wiki, the community at large could/would do it (likely much faster as I'm reasonably sure Bill would have jumped in and done it on the spot). Saves work for the administrator(s) and gives ownership to those who "care".

Jimi Buffet cant spel? Hoo new?

(Hell, sometimes it seems he can't even sing, right Key Westers?)

Thanks for the mention, BB. I'll pass this along to PHJim. As the administrator of the site, he's the only one who can make these changes. I can't make any promises as to how long it may take to make these changes, since I can't speak for another person. Some days it's all I can do to speak for myself.

No ducking needed... Your thoughts make sense, but I don't think there's a way for phjim to give access to the database to all of us.

Yeah, I know. I'm a software guy. Older technology just can't keep up with the newer features of stuff like wikis and blogs and Twitter and...... But it's still the best resource around!
