While I won't spit. I must admit that the word honor was bit mis-used. I would reserve words like honor for people like Mother Teresa, Gandhi, etc.

Actually he's a software knight ( http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/3428673.stm ) You can tell because he still wears glasses instead of sporting a monocle and a mustache.

As you can see, different people have their different perceptions of who they consider honorable or not.. So why are you complaining about his assuming that yours would be more appropriate?
As an example, i would find it an honor when meeting an old friend of mine.. i couldn't give 2 cents on mother terresa. And before someone shouts at me, that has NOTHING to do with what she did/didn't do.. she really did help alot in this world.. Its just going back to the first point.. different ppl have different oppinions on who is honorable and who is not, regardless of what or how much they did, so i suggest we all show a bit of respect.
