Dear Cosmos,
Personally, the least of my concerns is that of the LEA of my
particular jurisdiction, or that of the United States, which seems to
be making everywhere it's jurisdiction. I am more concerned about the

God Save the Queen.
God Bless the Prince of Wales.
God Preserve the Windsors.
Rule Britannia!
