If that is what you got out of what I said, you are doing some 
seriously loose and mostly incorrect interpretation.  Perhaps if 
you would re-read my post you would find that I said we don't have 
the physical numbers (population-wise) in the state of Oklahoma to 
become a *Kingdom.* 

People, please don't start jumping at shadows.

Casting aspersions on my region about who was good enough or 
capable enough never entered my mind or crossed my keyboard.

Thank you, I appreciate the courtesy.  I'm a little confused, 
though, at what in my post could have inspired anything less 
than civility.  

I accept that there are many differing viewpoints with regard to 
principality and lots of strong feelings on both sides.  I've done 
what others have done and picked the concerns that are important to 
me and those concerns strongly color my viewpoint.  I'm sure we all 
support what we do based on our own thoughts, concerns and feelings.  
In truth, I am capable of making much stronger arguments in support 
of my "side" of the issue if I truly wanted to color everyone's 
feelings. 

I suppose I add my opinions for another reason as well.  As Contessa 
Vanessa so aptly put it, folks (well meaning or not) are often wont 
to speak on behalf of those they consider friends.  This seems 
especially true when the friend is a peer, noble or royal.  In light 
of that fact, and because I was told not too long ago that folks want 
to know how their peers and nobles feel on important issues, I wanted 
to make my feelings clear.  Evidently not clear enough if so many 
people could see the word "Principality" where I clearly typed the 
word "Kingdom."
