    Excellent. Got one for 1492 in Spain? Don't remember the battle.
To: B-Chan
    Always wondered why they named a Cognac after Martel!

    I liked it. Just correct the spelling : it is Poitiers, not Portiers
To: B-Chan
    I believe it is "Hammer"-time once again.

    Do you know what else happened in Spain in 1492? The Christians expelled the Jews of Spain and began the Inquisition. This is hardly something to be proud of.

    Thank goodness Christianity has matured since then.
To: B-Chan
    I wonder if the tourist guy was there.
To: B-Chan
    Descendant of Charles Martel BUMP!
To: Darth Reagan
    Exactly. So why celebrate one of its darkest years?

    Thank goodness Christianity has matured since then.  I agree with slhill. From morbid glee we are getting from our current slaughter, we need to be careful about associating ourselves with the term Christian.

    Always wondered why they named a Cognac after Martel!  Because it hits like a hammer?
