Fact of the Day-from the scotsman.com

Today is St George's day, the national (if largely uncelebrated) day of our jolly good neighbours, the English. It is also the anniversary of the deaths of some of England's most famous literary sons. In 1616, William Shakespeare died; in 1850, William Wordsworth died and in 1915, Rupert Brooke died.
