Arnie and quickstorm -thanks for your help
I have another few question and spend a lot of time searching the forums but did not find the answer - apologize if I miss it.

I have level three medicine and my people still die at the age of 75 to 78 sometimes younger...(even with the healthy stew) Am I missing a tech to improve their life span. I only have to buy level three culture and exploration. I did put them on half speed hoping I could get an answer before more pass away.

Also my population went up twice to two different couple but no baby - is this a computer glitch?

And I have mother washing their babies at the fire or anywhere- never had this happen until I had an tech problewm with my first game and had to completely uninstall and reinstall I beleive I read from Lady CFII that is might be a computer glitch - please let me know if I am wrong - any way to correct it?

Thanks again . Love V V 2 and am going to buy V V 1 really soon. These forums are a wonderful way to get to know each other and get qestu=ions answered - a great help : ) for us newbies
