The Peerages...

I totally agree with Mistress Aquilanne.  I have heard Laurels say that you 
shouldn't get an Iris unless you have two or more thistles.  Speaking as someone
who is basically a "one trick pony" in the A&S field who has an Iris it's good to
know that this isn't a majority opinion.

Having a Mastery of several arts is an immense accomplishment and those talented 
people I honor greatly.  But I once heard the definition of a Laurel as someone 
who could make a living in their art in the Middle Ages.  I also greatly admire
someone who is an undisputed Master of one subject.  I feel there should be no
dispute amoung the qualities of A&S.

Just throwing some native perspective of someone who will never be a Laurel 
around.
