1/4 of the earth's population of humans die between 1346 and 1352, and they get a paragraph in the history books. One poor guy in Oregon, God bless him, and prayers up... is very sick, and it makes national news.

Well, in all fairness, I don't think Algore had quite worked out that internet thingy back then ;-)

In NM, in 1981, I got a briefing about plague being endemic along with 'don't go into old shacks, they have mouse droppings with hanta virus'.

Some folks don't know, and they learn hard or easy, I suppose.

I followed all of the briefings except where I knew I could get away with it.
