I thought that I knew what the gunpowder plot was all about. How wrong I was. It turns out that - according to Webster Tarpley & others - the plot had no chance of being realised. That the gunpowder wasn't even gun powder, it was cornpowder - a much less combustible substance. That the king et al where nowhere near the scene. That Guy had been well and truly stitched up by the Cecil's. He was surrounded by fanatics and double agents (well one agent either side of him).
Remember, remember the fifth of November...in this context it reminds me of how little I actually know, and how important it is to do proper research, rigorous research, if you actually want to understand something...or attempt a better - more thorough - understanding.
