Very well put Doc - as usual!

I saw a Brit journo being interviewed on Phil's alleged gaff. His comment was also somewhat inappropriate, but it was true - and funny from some angles....

Basically he said, "Thank God for the old chap. If it wasn't for him these royal tours would be mind numbingly boring. They must be boring for him and the queen as well. He's not a stupid man and he does have a good sense of humour, so he probably said it because he knew he'd get a reaction. I was there and heard him ask the question and there's no way the Aboriginal elder was offended".

Slow news day.
