@buttcoin,

Touché mate.

Thank goodness there are still a few people left who appreciate the Queen's yeoman-like contributions to the Commonwealth. "Adding cognitive dissonance to the system" ... I never thought of that! A bit of the counter-factual to add spice to the art of science. Nice. Perhaps we could make Deepak Chopra a Baron or something.

Cryptogee, you were right ... the Royals are worth every penny.

Here's the Queen carrying both the Sceptre AND the Orb ... at the same time. And she does it with a smile.
