Several years ago when we came to do a conference for Mike and Sally, in Nova Scotia, we visited Louisburg. They spoke of two things. Poison water from the sewage and how it kept the MicMac out of the town for more than a few hours of trading. The French only drank wine. The other was the smell of human excrement which the troops wore. The actors in the re-enactment actually had a perfume that smelled of excrement that they wore to work for the tourists. I can tell you it was effective.

Lewisburg in Nova Scotia had a similar strategy working there hundreds of years ago. Ask them about the wells. So what's this about Louisburg about, Ray? Doesn't ring any bells for me. -- Michael Spencer Nova Scotia, Canada .~. /V\ [email protected] /( )\ http://home.tallships.ca/mspencer/ ^^-^^ _______________________________________________ Futurework mailing list [email protected] https://lists.uwaterloo.ca/mailman/listinfo/futurework _______________________________________________ Futurework mailing list [email protected] https://lists.uwaterloo.ca/mailman/listinfo/futurework
