Knighthood in flower in Spilsby, Lincolnshire

Here I am, writing an article on 14th century chivalry, thinking about the seminar on chivalry I will be teaching next fall, and I run across an article in the Times of London about Spilsby (above) and its successful (so far) program to reduce youth crime by teaching a class on chivalry to 6 to 8 year-olds. More details here.

I'm so glad you posted this -- I was going to have to do a search for it in regards to one of my Kazoo panels.
