rename

I suggest this page be renamed to William Hogarth Main with Bill Main as a redirect, as that is his full name and less likely to end up as a disambiguation. • • • Peter (Southwood) ^(talk): 09:47, 4 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As the article creator, I have no objection. - Banyan Tree 19:19, 5 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The reference to Sheck Exley inventing or first using the long hose is wholly incorrect. I corrected this on this page in the past at Bill Main’s request, but someone keeps changing it back to Sheck Exley.

John Zumrick was the first to use the long hose and both Bill Main and Sheck Exley adapted their rigs after seeing Zumrick’s idea. Would someone please permanently fix this? If you would like, I can provide you with Bill’s phone number and you can verify this yourself. Rvbcave (talk) 15:29, 5 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
