dang, Paul Graham is British; has it factored into your decision of keeping the comments deferential to the Queen.

My condolences to British people who held the Queen at high esteem. But frankly world is a bigger place than Britain and America. Not everyone from the British former colonies will appreciate the Queen. if they express the feelings about the monarchy in a respectful way; do you see an issue?

There was no "decision of keeping the comments deferential to the Queen". In any case, PG having been born in Britain does not factor into any decisions on HN.

I believe I've answered your other question in a few places:

... as well as in the comment you're replying to (starting at "I'm not telling you guys to be royalists!"). If you read those comments and still have a question that isn't answered there, I'd be happy to take a crack at it.
