I also proposed "Did you know ... that this US senator used his position to
defend African American soldiers falsely accused of murder?" with the same
stipulation as earlier—the second clause is neutral because all of the men
were exonerated in the 1970s.
Re arbcom ... if they held *actual *trials by battle, I'd want
GorillaWarfare and former arbitrator NuclearWarfare in my corner.

Hi Ed, sorry I'm lost, exactly which suggestion
are you referring to?
By the way, I thought that trial by battle referred to Arbitration
Committee proceedings. ;)

Fine by me! I wasn't too sure if it was a
decent idea or not. What about
my first suggestion?

I'd probably be wary about doing this again
for the same blogpost, but
it's probably an idea for the future?

We could also try to make an explicit Game of
Thrones reference, if
it's not too repetitive: "Oberyn Martell and the Mountain from *Game
of Thrones* could have fought in a trial by battle as late as 1818,"
or "*Game of Thrones*' Tyrion could have requested a trial by battle
as late as 1818."
*Game of Thrones* there would be linked to the show's page (that
should drive up views).
Sorry, if I actually watched GoT I would have thought of this before.
