William 'Some-Other-Guy' Shakespeare (1564-1616)

Okay, folks, here's the deal. I've gotten comments on the whole Marlowe-as-author-of-the-works-of-Shakespeare controversy. There are quite a few places out there which are hotly debating the whole question.

• If you believe Marlowe was the author of the Shakespeare works...
• If you believe Sir Francis Bacon was the author...
• If you believe Edward de Vere, Earl of Oxford, was the author...
• If you believe William Shakespeare wrote William Shakespeare...

...you are not alone. You are likely wrong, but you are not alone.
