To: Oztrich Boy

What offends me is the idea that - aside from the basic good manners we were taught by our parents and grandparents - we “have” to behave a certain way before the Queen (don’t speak to her unless she speaks to you, don’t shake her hand before she offers hers to be shaken, etc.) What nonsense! She is just flesh and blood just like everyone else - and if she were wearing a spacesuit, she would go to the bathroom just like any other astronaut.
