Was it equally sad that Labour councillors voted for monarchy ?

Despite the Tory councilor's gush, it wasn't "voting for monarchy." Technically it was voting for nobility, but whatever. Petulantly refusing to recognize the guy's title is not a heroic stand, it's just petty.

#2 writers on set There's also the writer's story continuity that gets broken during video adaptations. I don't have a link handy, but I read somewhere that tv production of American Gods was going to add a scene with Loki in Europe or something, but Neil Gaiman had to step in and insist that it not happen. Because the Loki in Europe is a different god from the Loki in the USA. There are multiple variations of them, and he didn't want to confuse the viewers. (Any more than the "Jesus Christ in the USA" multiplicity, at any rate. LOL)
