The Knights Templar bore Arms and arms - yes. But the "search" for the
Holy Grail does not really come under the heading of Heraldry -
chivalry perhaps. Your linkage with heraldry is akin to me making a
post about the conspiracy theories concerning the death of Diana,
Princess of Wales in this forum solely on the basis that she was
armigerous.

Unless one is a conspiracy theorist who postulates that the actual target of an
assassination was Dody Faed, over that whole "someone else's arms on dad's new
castle" flap...

But I don't think "Alert" (or Tim, whatever) is *THAT* loony. Though I could be
wrong.
