  I know. History is full of so many mysteries and strange twists. It is nice to see one more or less revealed and solved.

  I know! The whole saga is pretty fascinating. I’m waiting for the book and movie adaptations. Shouldn’t be long before those projects are announced.

  I know, right? I love history and Richard III was, of course, mythologized/demonized by Shakespeare. It’s fascinating.
