For the record, they weren't burned, either. Nineteen were hanged and one was pressed to death with rocks. And a few more died in prison while awaiting trial.

Yes, I'm a nerd. We know.

Now, if they'd hung them all for starting a wasteful big dig project...

My bad! I always do that...I replace hanging with burning at the stake for some reason...I do always remember the poor guy who was crushed. I guess it goes back to the Burning Times...even though that's a bit of a misnomer as well!
