Hmm, yeah the "Chretien de Troyes" sounds right, I've come across that poet's name a few times while doing Arthurian research. I didn't know he was the first one to use him though! That's something new! I'll have to look that up later!

As for Elaine, actually in most versions she doesn't drug him but has her servant get him drunk. And if Lancelot practiced moderation (maybe the fifth revill was one too many? LOL) he wouldn't have had that problem. Also, he dumped Elaine on her butt when she was pregnant and the legends JUSTIFIED it! So I'm siding with Elaine on that one.
