I was very disappointed that your article on "Presidential Trivia" had one (that I saw) glaring mistake. Our 26th President, Theodore Roosevelt was 42 when he took the oath of office, John F. Kennedy was 43.

Sorry Crazywolf, but the article was accurate. TR was younger than JFK when each took office, but TR took office after the assassination of McKinley to complete McKinley's term. He was older than JFK when he was elected to his own term.

I found two mistakes in the article...James Garfield was shot in July 1881, but didn't die until that September, six months after being sworn into office. Also, Franklin D. Roosevelt was the only American president elected for four terms. He did live to see the end of his fourth term.
