Well if you are interested Snopes has something on most of this, although their message is slightly different. snopes.com: Life in the 1500sHi...
Very interesting...and probably lots of truth to it.
Thanks goodness for indoor plumbing and some of the other benevolent luxuries we are fortunate enough to have in these times. I don't mind rough camping for a couple weeks or so but overall these things are good to have in life.I grew up with out a bathroom in the house but no one left me have a coffee can. I made many a cold trip to the OH in the middle of the night and sitting on that darn frosted wooden seat was not something I ever looked forward to.
