Untitled[edit]

I fail to see how this is of "mid" importance, though I do not doubt it should be on the wikipedia, especially for the British Columbia portal a mid importance article would seem to be one that is more notable than this island. Anmore for example is rated as low yet has more population, could anyone explain the reasoning of this to me? TotallyTempo 15:40, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

All depends on who does the rating and what kind of mood they're in. bobanny 15:52, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shoe house[edit]

I don't know if it's still there, but does anyone remember there being a house in the shape of a giant shoe somewhere on the island? I know I recall seeing it while exploring the island one night.. couldn't have been just an acid trip.. it was quite surreal, looked just like the one from the nursery rhyme actually, There was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe, and was big enough to support someone living in there. I'm not making this up. -- œ ^™ 23:02, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

And it wasn't the pump house. -- œ ^™ 04:26, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
