THANK YOU!!!  While I dearly love all the retellings of the Arthurian saga, I 
think this point is the most important.  Without harder historical proof....  
they are legends, stories, tales......  albeit good ones.

Don't try to force them into a mold of "historical accuracy", when they're 
not.  Enjoy them for what they ARE, and let the rest .... just rest.
