Yes but on a mobile device it's hard to browse through. Unfortunately we are in a new era which means new technology and new ways of doing things. Indexes on a forum just aren't it.

Not to mention the links to brickset and brickfactory are broken, so verifying their appearances, listed on 2013, isn't a possibility.

I have tried fixing some of the links, but I can’t fix the links from image hosting sites that have gone bust.

I do still have the Word documents from when I originally made the lists, and the pictures in those are still intact if anyone is interested.

The list hasn’t been updated in years, and there has been some new material to add to it. Maybe we could all work together to improve and expand it.

Speaking of broken links, Kelceycoe, I tried taking a look at the scans of Bo’Sun Will’s Activity book on your site since I hadn’t seen it before, but the scans don’t work.

I tried using the link you provided, but it still didn’t work. Although my brother tried it too, and it worked on his computer. So I guess it’s some sort of technical issue with my laptop.

Boatswain Will (Bo'Sun Will in UK) 

The word "boatswain" is pronounced like "boats'n" or "bo'sun". It's a nautical thing.  So if there are comics or whatnot where it's spelled like "Bo'Sun", they were just kind of spelling it out phonetically.

 

I used to row competitively in high school. The (usually small/light) person who sits in the stern, steers the boat, and calls out orders (NOT "row row row!" which is an annoying misconception) is called the coxswain, which is pronounced like "cox'n". It's the same type of thing, boatswain->bo'sun, coxswain->cox'n.
