William Scoresby on Wikipedia is a very interesting page... I suggest checking it out. Mr.Xeight 02:21, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
- Well, I notice he’s mentioned a few times in the text of Moby Dick (eg Chapter 32, “Cetology”.) Eschiss1 (talk) 15:25, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
Age[]
Hi, I am wondering if references to Lee's age and any dates given should be removed? After scouring Once Upon a Time in the North there simply is no reference to any particular year in there even though this article says there is. Perhaps somebody has a different edition of the text which includes these?

- Thanks for pointing this out (are you the person who posted this to Laurie Frost on Twitter?). I put the age in because it's been put on the wiki that 1962 was the year the events of OTN happened but seeing as the year was blotted out on the bill of lading, I don't think we know. The dates and years on this wiki really need to be sorted out. If no one has any information about this then I'll remove the facts in three days - I assume they were put there on mere assumption.

- Just looked back at your tweets (from your initials, it seems you are that person) the '52/'53 that was mentioned in NL wasn't the date of the floods. In LBS, we hear in the Trout talk about the last floods being in '52/'53 and that floods happen every 30 years or so which (when putting it to other facts) would place Lyra's birth date around 1985 (she's 6 months in February of 1986, if that is when LBS takes place). Although, I still don't get where the 1962 came from... NightSpeakers - My Blogs! 19:55, October 30, 2019 (UTC)
