Oh well, since it is Friday.
I can't help thinking about Bugs Bunny:
'Arise, Sir Loin of Beef'
'Arise, Sir Osis of Liver'

> Lou was knighted by Queen Elizabeth.

I missed this.  Where was this reported?

> Does that mean iNation will be duchy?

He would need to be a Duke.  There are only about 22 left in the UK if I
remember
correctly.  As no new hereditary peers are being created, there will not be
any
new Dukes.

>
> <bg>  Just what are the rules to be knighted, anyway.

As he is not a UK citizen, he can only be an honourary knight

>  Seems to me to have

Not to those who who hear the magic words "Arise, Sir ...."

Any other useless information that anyone would like?

Best wishes
