Well, there you go. Very informtive. Must confess, I got Mallory and Monmouth mixed up!! I knew Mallory was a romatic writer. There must be an element of truth in the old legends - but they get so twisted in the telling. You certainly did your ′homework′ Bill, Many thanks

The whole story of Lancelot by Chretien is there on the web to read. copyright Berkley.
de Troyes is much more sympathetic to the character of Lancelot than Sir Thomas

It is not really suitable for a family chat room like this.It ends
"Yet, the most choice and delightful satisfaction was precisely that of which our story must not speak. That night Lancelot′s XXXXXXXX were very great. But, to his sorrow, day comes when he must leave his mistress′ side. It cost him such pain to leave her that he suffered a real martyr′s agony. His heart now stays where the Queen remains; he has not the power to lead it away, for it finds such pleasure in the Queen that it has no desire to leave her: so his body goes, and his heart remain

"Here are some of my favorites.

The Moving Finger writes, and having writ,
Moves on: nor all your Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a line,
Nor all your tears wash out a Word of it."

There′s a unique reality and perception to sonic words and there′s also the reality/perception of written words.
And that′s that.

Advertising and Marketing.
Advertising is a single component of the marketing process. It′s the part that involves getting the word out concerning your business, product, or the services you are offering. It involves the process of developing strategies such as ad placement, frequency, etc. Advertising includes the placement of an ad in such mediums as newspapers, direct mail, billboards, television, radio, and of course the Internet. Advertising is the largest expense of most marketing plans, with public relations following in a close second and market research not falling far behind.
The best way to distinguish between advertising and marketing is to think of marketing as a pie, inside that pie you have slices of advertising, market research, media planning, public relations, product pricing, distribution, customer support, sales strategy, and community involvement. Advertising only equals one piece of the pie in the strategy. All of these elements must not only work independently but they also must work together towards the bigger goal. Marketing is a process that takes time and can involve hours of research for a marketing plan to be effective. Think of marketing as everything that an organization does to facilitate an exchange between company and consumer.
