My main exposure to dysentery was playing the Oregon Trail as a kid on my Apple II. I named my wagon party after the A-team of course. B.A. was always getting lost on the trail, Murdock would break his leg, and, sure enough, Faceman would come down with an unsightly case of dysentery. Hannibal had to hold together the team. Just like in real life! Then it was hunt hunt hunt for those buffalo. We never could carry back all that meat to the wagon.

Oregon Trail rawked!
:wonders if there's an Apple II emu anywhere:
You forgot cholera! :D
