The other day, on my way to shul, I passed a father telling two small children about Admiral Lord Nelson at the battle of Trafalgar. "How did he die?" said one of them. "Did he get very seasick?"

As if you prompted it; today's BING page shows Nelson's Column. http://www.bing.com/?cc=gb

Well, it was the anniversary two days ago, so it probably was not coincidence.
