Post the information your group finds on each of the individuals, concepts and devices listed below. You will be given time in class to work on this assignment over the next few weeks as we move through the relevent sections of Empires of Light. Do not copy copy directly from your sources but synthesize what you learn and write your own accounts. Put a citation after each item to those pages in Jonnes, websites, or other sources you used in putting together your entries. The division of labor in your group is up to you but each entry to this page should include the names of those who did the writing and research. Also remember to put your group memebers' names at the top of this page. Move these instructions to the bottom of the page so you can consult them later and try and organize and format your entries so the information is acessible and easy to read. Note that you cannot have two people trying to post enties to the same wetpaint page at the same time so you may find it useful to work in an HTML editor (or use Word and save as a web page) before pasting your entry to the wiki.
