"Remember, Remember .....

The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,
I know of no reason

It also provided the foundation for a society of its own, and a popular modern film. On the blogosphere, here is one Brit's view, and a site that helps you make your own Guy Fawkes mask (ala "V for Vendetta") which looks A LOT snazzier than a paper sack over your head, and a blog channeling Fawkes' spirit.
