Hi, Ed!  Recently you wrote in a message to Alexander Koryagin:

EV>  Coffee News is a newsletter found in local restaurants

          Yes, we have it here although it seems to be available only in the suburbs nowadays.  I enjoy reading it when I can.  :-)


EV>  In the October 14, 2024 edition is this:

EV>  A. A. Milne, the author of Winnie-the-Pooh, didn't invent
EV>  the bear's name. His son, Christopher Robin Milne, called
EV>  his own teddy bear Winnie after a visit to the London Zoo,
EV>  where he saw a bear named for Winnipeg, Manitoba (Canada).

          That is my understanding as well....  :-)
