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?

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.
