- Alan Hanson said I was overly bold by suggesting the Mangani and the gorillas were close on an evolutionary scale. And using a gorilla's time growth to track Gazan's growth is a mere assumption. Maybe so, but every bite of information I supplied fits into the provided information of ERB, the author, without changing the presented storyline once.
- Joe Ferrier suggested that Tarzan was thirteen and Jane fifteen when they met. Now that is an assumption that goes against ERB, the author's, provided information. If Joe would have used Tarzan being fifteen, as stated in The Return Of Tarzan, I could understand where he was coming from. I can find no ERB-provided evidence that suggests, or hints, that the two met so early. Joe's assumption changes the storyline as presented by ERB, the author.
- Alan Hanson says the lunar eclipse did not occur in Jungle Tales Of Tarzan but was another kind of weather incident. This is an assumption I don't personally agree with, but one I could live with. ERB, the author's, storyline is debatably altered, but it is at least done so with cunning, thought, and direction.
- Alan Hanson says that The Son Of Tarzan is merely fiction and does not belong in the Tarzan chronology. Now, this is an assumption that goes directly against ERB, the author's, provided information. Alan's theory drastically changes the presented storyline as told by ERB, the author.
- Edgar Rice Burroughs is from Chicago, Illinois.
- Edgar Rice Burroughs from Virginia is John Carter's great-nephew.
