Just a fact for today

Fact of the Day--from the Scotsman.com

On this date in 1307, Edward I, having conquered the Welsh, died on his way to Scotland to fight Robert the Bruce. Seven years later Robert the Bruce defeated the English at Bannockburn, but now historians are divided over the meaning of the battle.

Historians have been divided over the meaning of this battle for a long time. I have read several accounts...........isn't history interesting?
