World Almanac Blog

The World Almanac is a quintessential reference source. In this blog M-F I find interesting nuggets in the 'WA' and add details via the web.

Eliot Spitzer has resigned as Governor of New York. He will forfeit his $ 179,000 yearly salary which was the highest of any state head (P.444). He will avoid impeachment. However, another NY governor did not resign and was impeached. This governor was William Sulzer, same last three letters of his name but otherwise the two are linked thru history by an almost similar story and the ending of their surnames.
