Paul Revere did NOT shout the "British" are coming. At that point, most of the colonists still considered themselves British, and Revere would have shouted that the regulars are out.

And anyway, Revere didn't get far. Prescott is the one who should get credit for raising the alarm. Too bad his named doesn't rhyme with anything.

Hmmm. Prescott. Mascot, dreadnaught, biskott. Thankfully for everyone, I’m no poet, and I know it. ;>}
