Or, you can photocopy your Seneschal's copy, or you can probably send
Rabah postage if you want him to mail it to you. Since most people use
the Red Tape to line their bird cages, it doesn't make sense to mail
it to everyone.  On the other hand, putting the Red Tape on the web
page didn't cost the Kingdom any money, and it might save it some
copying and postage costs.

But, if you want to know the straight poop, you can always ask the
Kingdom Chronicler.

Were I a resident of Meridies, I would wonder if mailing out their
kingdom laws was worth the copying and postage costs, yes.
