    Only self-aggrandizing pseudo intellectual twits would refer to the great Celtic (that would be pronounced "seltic") female warrior as "Boudicca." See "Herky". The name is, among other things, the root of the wonderful word "boadacious". For confirmation of the spelling, see Winston Churchill's "History of the English Speaking Peoples" Volume I.

    I am surprised that a student of English history of your obvious accomplishment would make that mistake. Let us hope we do not clash again, for I value your contributions.
