Did Richard III exist?

David asked: did Richard exist?

***

Sure. All the money that's been spent on books about
him, tours to Ricardian sites, and tickets to
Shakespeare's play proves his existence. What's more
real than money?

He exists because we're talking about him. Just as
unicorns exist because tapestry weavers wove them
and painters painted them and poets wrote poems about
them. Just as Nessie exists because someone put up a
Nessie crossing sign on the road beside Loch Ness.

You don't have to be visible to exist. <G>
