Guess I missed your question secondcurve. Sorry about that.
No, I didn't have to look it up... I just watch too much History Channel and have read to many historical romance novels.
The old west interests me greatly too. (I'm sure my love of history doesn't surprise anyone here.)
Did you know that the infamous Doc Holliday died of consumption?
Be thankful for inoculations, dying like this was not pleasant way to go.
