There are many people here who probably don't realize that Bloody History is our very own Strabo Furius, who developed the thing over aeons at both AS and AW - but I agree, they're excellent as long as you've got the mind of a Plautus. Nope, not cynical enough. Who was the greatest Roman satirist who ever lived? I think they took themselves too seriously for that.

I just recommended the Bloody Funny history site to a friend who's enchanted ;)
