Argh!!!  I wish these kings would be more original in name selection.
It's hard to keep them apart centuries later!!  Talk about being
inconsiderate.  

Oh well.  My bad again.  But it was only a typo, officer, I swear.

I did mean Richard Uno.  Subsequently I consulted my extensive historical
holdings, namely pages 97 thorugh 98, and it turns out that Tres was
pretty rotten too, though maybe not as rotten as Shakespeare painted.

Ha.  My point remains -- any "nice" lowdown on Richard I or the
Teutonic Knights, please, if we could.  Considering that "Lionheart"
is a "k8"-significant :) string, I am rebuffing any take-this-thread-to-
sci.history motion in advance.

We owe it to Kate Bush Studies to construe a hermeneutically sound
interpretive matrix for the precious "Oh, England, my Lionheart"...

Thank you Jonathan.
