As I said in another thread, I'm amazd that people still attach any credibility to the British honours system. It's a joke.

I guess I find myself agreeing with this even though I don't know much about the British honours system. One of my great uncles (citizen of Bermuda) was knighted for having something to do with the Olympics (nobody has ever told me what). But I think if my great uncle Chummy can be knighted for something like that, Tim Berners-Lee ought to be nominated for sainthood.
