Perhaps we ought to round them up and exile them to an island somewhere near Pago Pago. :) I am sorry to devalue the real estate near Pago-Pago with the presence of these misfits, but there you have it.

I am always shocked at the vituperation expressed in online comments to tabloid stories about the Royals. Such venom! Of course, I realize those e-bombs are often hurled from the looniest fringes.

Also, Charles is better liked than many people suppose. He may not be glamorous these days but he's part of everyone's life below the age of 60. He's almost like a family member for most people in this country. He won't stand alone on any balcony when he's crowned. ;) Dan, the Royal magic and the historical nature of the event will ensure a massive turnout for a Coronation.
