[edit] Removal of Note
I regretfully have removed the note that attributes a section title in Robert Heinlein's The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress to the title of Roberts' novel Rabble In Arms. The key word that rendered the note unusable was "apparently." Roberts makes clear at the frontispiece of the novel that the title is derived from a very famous comment by British Gen. Thomas Gage following the Battle of Bunker Hill - that the colonials were "a rabble in arms, flushed with victory and insolence." Former military man Heinlein is at least as likely to be quoting Gage as Roberts, and without a definitive source, the note needs to go. Sensei48 (talk) 06:06, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
