I love Cantrips in their early T$R incarnation.  We had a campaign where
a character studied only cantrips.  16 racked cantrips, and an active
imagination, is sometimes harder to deal with than a fireball.

I think in a magickal world, magick would trickle down.  Why scrub that
delicate inlaid ewer, when it can be Cleaned?

Another bylaw of the Carnn Guild: All castings in presence of mundanes
to include gestures and incantations as appropriate.  All reasonable
preparations are to be made, regardless of caster experience with the
spell in question.  <translate: Don't make it look easy.>  :)
