	Ah, the distinctions of peerages...Kings/Queens/Prince/sses and the
retired versions (Count/esses, Duke etc.) are royal peers.  Landed
Baron/esses are landed peers.  Knights, Pelicans and Laurels are of
Peerage Orders, granted by the Crown.
	And of course Court Baron/esses, such as myself, are landless white
trash.
