    Will this be a permanent link for the constitution?

    I would like to link to it on my site. If not, I’ll download it and upload it someplace else.

    It will be permanent.

    The author must have put in a good amount of swift work…

    [...] Of course, being a good teacher, I had to explain that this is a fairy story and no one would take it seriously in real life. [Hey dad, that doesn’t matter. We love fairy stories. Tomorrow can we have the draft constitution?] [...]

Please note: New Mandala encourages vigorous debate. However, for the moment we will only be publishing high-quality comments that make original contributions to discussion. There will, of course, still be space for pithy, humorous, eccentric and cheeky input. Short and sweet will usually trump long and involved. Repetitive ranting, unimaginative point-scoring and idle abuse will not be entertained. Comments which carry a real name are also more likely to be approved. Thank you for your ongoing interest and contributions.
