Eh? The OP that I have [with the ominous date of April 1, AS XXXII
(1998 CE) ] lists KSCA, MSCA, PoA, ML, and MP .  For that matter so
does the OP dated Jan 20, 1997  

Have we started abbreviating Master/Mistress of the Laurel as MOL
and Master/Mistress of the Pelican as MOP?  Hey, maybe we could get
another badge passed; "fieldless crossed MOPs proper" :)

Although the only listing for PoA is to Margaret Ny Conor and it was
awarded in the East.  Why Ansteorra doesn't use PoAs I don't know.

Larkin O'Kane     I will not purposly offend anyone in a public forum:
CSM, AoA, AQR     If this post offends you, please tell me privately.
