Rum was distilled in lead pipes and as everybody on the expedition were sailors... Well you see where I'm going with this http://fieldresearchcentre.weebly.com/uploads/1/8/0/7/18079819/varney_et_al.pdf<br /><br />Maybe that's why goodsir's hair sample showed a decrease in lead in the last month or so of his life, they ran out of rum?MChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13394092223320661501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7460851571985771047.post-19069575956164985302019-06-19T20:04:15.336-07:002019-06-19T20:04:15.336-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.MChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13394092223320661501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7460851571985771047.post-79931675223760319512019-06-19T19:58:50.210-07:002019-06-19T19:58:50.210-07:00https://whyy.org/articles/lead-pipes-can-mean-bad-...https://whyy.org/articles/lead-pipes-can-mean-bad-water-but-corrosion-control-can-limit-leads-impact/MChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13394092223320661501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7460851571985771047.post-31829918120493341032019-06-19T19:49:10.507-07:002019-06-19T19:49:10.507-07:00But even over time, lead pipes will build up a bio...But even over time, lead pipes will build up a biofilm that helps stop the lead from leeching into the water. Also the water itself wouldn't exactly be pure h2o necessarily. Water in into itself is a fantastic solvent, though. There'd still be contamination in the water to build a biofilm, even as a byproduct of the stuff they were cooking in the coppers. It'd be interesting to examine the inside of one of those pipes microscopically. I have a feeling they probably weren't exactly clean. Wholesome, sure, clean, doubtful.MChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13394092223320661501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7460851571985771047.post-27805609715294503302019-06-19T19:44:03.489-07:002019-06-19T19:44:03.489-07:00I have a feeling those guys probably weren't w...I have a feeling those guys probably weren't washing their hair with shampoo.

Children were eating the peelings. <br /><br />Do you think that in early to mid 1800s Engkand, children ate the peelings and ingested lead ?
