To go off on a tangent, does it ever amaze you to think on how hardy our ancestors must have been? You know, they survived through childbirth (well, at least the children did!), through plague and smallpox and famine and disease. I'm always in awe when I trace an ancestor living through Yet Another Plague. Fantastic stuff.
