"20th Century Drought." North American Drought. NOAA Satellite and Information Service. Web. 27 Oct. 2010. <http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/paleo/drought/drght_history.html>. 
  • This site has no author or publication date on the page.  But if you navigate through the website you find the publication date and the day that it was last uploaded.  Still no author though.  I think that I would use this site again because it had a lot of good unbiased information. 
Benjamin, Daniel. "The Dust Bowl Reconsidered :." PERC - The Property and Environment Research Center. 2004. Web. 26 Oct. 2010. http://www.perc.org/articles/article505.php.
  • I think that this is an extremely reliable site.  It not only has the author and the date published, at the bottom it has the authors credentials and the references that HE used for the hsi research. 
Boehlke, Julie. "What Are Symptoms Of Dust Pneumonia? | LIVESTRONG.COM."LIVESTRONG.COM. 27 Oct. 2009. Web. 25 Oct. 2010. http://www.livestrong.com/article/17213-symptoms-dust-pneumonia/
  • I don't think that this site is too reliable.  I probably should have cited a medical website for the syptoms of dust pneumonia.  This website does not have a publishing date, though it does have a cited author with her credentials.  The only thing is that she is not a doctor or anyone that is knowledgable of dust pneumonia.  She is a journalist. 
Bonnifield, Paul. "Dust Pneumonia." Paranorma. Rocky Mountain PBS, 04 Oct. 2009. Web. 22 Oct. 2010. http://www.rmpbs.org/panorama/index.cfm/entry/574/Dust-pneumonia,-the-brown-plague.
  • This website is reliable.  It has an author and a date posted (since it's a blog).  It's not very professional looking but I guess that's because it is a blog.  At the bottom is cites it's sources and also gives photo credit so I know that it's pretty legit. 
Colenso, Maria. "What Caused the Dust Bowl." Howstuffworks. Discovery Company, 17 Sept. 2008. Web. 24 Oct. 2010. http://science.howstuffworks.com/environmental/green-science/dust-bowl-cause1.htm.
  • I think that this site is pretty reliable.  HowStuffWorks is a pretty well known site and at the end of the article it has the sources used along with the authors name at the top.  The sources cited at the end could have been useful in my research and I could find some useful information here.
Fleury, Maureen. "Black Sunday Dust Storm." Suite101.com. 28 May 2009. Web. 26 Oct. 2010. http://www.suite101.com/content/black-sunday-dust-storm-on-april-14-1935-a120873.
  • This site is not as reliable as other sites but I think it's pretty good.  It has the author and the date posted but it doesn't have the author's sources or anything like that so I don't know where their information came from.
