I'm pretty sure my friends and I did start getting scurvy in college. We bought a bunch of oranges after all our gums started bleeding.

2023-11-18 09:50:01 +0000 UTCI'm a teacher at an 1800s Australian sailing ship. We get kids coming on all the time to experience a bit of the age of sail cuz they're learning about Cook and the 'discovery' of australia. They seem to still be getting the cool and brave guy version of him that I got at school 35 years ago.
