    Darwin was famously seasick, but also wanted to really look at birds and shit. Bad combination.

      Good News! Hot showers weren’t common place with non royalty for another 50 years. Likely his only choice of shower was a cold shower.

        I was actually making a joke about the hydrotherapy he used to treat his condition. It involved getting doused with cold water. I don’t think anyone caught my joke.
