Stumbled Upon Today.

For the Original Sin file:

IF YOU are worried about being attacked or killed by a violent criminal, just be glad you are not living in Neolithic Britain. From 4000 to 3200 BC, Britons had a 1 in 14 chance of being bashed on the head, and a 1 in 50 chance of dying from their injuries.

Here's the whole thing.

For the Effluvia file:

They'll sure bite if you're using the Mepps Aglia, regardless of digestive issues.
