Myths

Seen the survey that shows that most Britons think Sherlock Holmes was a real person? Even odder:

The survey found that 47 percent thought the 12th century English king Richard the Lionheart was a myth.

Wha??!!?? Ask any of those behead-those-who-insult-Islam protesters who Richard the Lionheart was. In fact, a better question would be: how many of them still think he's alive? Sheesh, we're still paying for Richard's sins, and most of us didn't even know the guy.
