Corrections received:
From Justin Bishop, Horse Sense, July, 2005: Horse Sense, consisting of Justin Bishop & John Nielson, was on the main stage a couple of times at the 1985 Gathering, as well as the '87 & '94 gatherings; Horse Sense is "back in business again."
From Deanna McCall, February, 2008: As a family group we actually began performing in 88, Katie began in 87 on her own. Some of the years are missing, but that gives a general idea. Rusty was 3 the first time he joined us onstage, I believe he was the youngest poet to perform, that was 89.
