I really wonder where all these folks would be if the "king" or the "queen" were still in charge and said I want the telescope.  Would they be able to say "No, King" or "No, Queen", you can't do that.  It's our land.  I know we don't have a king or queen, but I was just wondering....so many times I hear people saying "our" land, "their" land....but again, if there was a king, it wouldn't be theirs!!!!
