[Artemisia] A New Discussion - SCA Skills in a Modern Plague

 As an experiment, I have reused contemporary canning lids. I pressure cooked them, to kill any bacteria in the rubber, and then soften and smooth out the rubber itself. Was very cautious about what I re-canned (hi acid foods, only), but it seemed to work. I also would stockpile lids... lots of lids, but in a pinch, they could be reused...

To add:

Boiled water is flat.  To take out the 'flatness' aeriate it by pouring it 
back and forth between 2 containers and will taste just fine.

The important buildings housing the most important items for us:  libraries, 
museums, and to some degree science centers.

"Lids" (i.e., canning) were beeswax and later parafin wax.
