There was a four page ad spread in today's paper for The History Channel's new documentary, Quest for King Arthur and I wanted to be sure to catch it tonight (it doesn't hurt that its narrated by Patrick Stewart!). It reminded me that my very first reference question that I remember asking was about King Arthur. I think it was third or fourth grade, and I called the library to find out when King Arthur had lived for a paper or something I was working on. I'll never forget how the librarian told me when King Arthur lived -- if he lived. I remember being rather shocked and appalled at that. I don't think it had occurred to me before then that it could all just be a myth...
Plus there was a preview for the new King Arthur movie (Keira Knightly as Guinevere! Cool!) before The Terminal tonight (I also got to see a preview for Fahrenheit 9/11, which I definitely want to see as well!)
