Richardson's message, Peter Stewart acknowledged his mistake. Peter, unlike
some, always acknowledges mistakes as soon as he is aware, most of the time
before others have spotted them.

Otto------Count of Poitou?
He was count of Ponthieu, not Poitou.
Peter Stewart
In your eagerness to find fault with others, you've made an error of
your own. Otto was, of course, Count of Poitou, not Count of Ponthieu.
He was the nephew of King Richard and King John of England.
As you have told us repeatedly, a careful scholar would not make such
mistakes. Perhaps you have judged yourself too harshly, Peter.
