Question

Why isn't the "retired mechanic turned photographer" given a name?

He is. Read again: "It was discovered in 2001 in several glades of the Ouachita Mountains in Saline County, Arkansas by John Pelton, a retired mechanic turned amateur photographer and naturalist". Djlayton4 | talk | contribs 20:18, 15 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
