I must admit that this is the first that I've heard of this being questioned.  I also admit that I'm not extremely informed in certain historical matters, so I have nothing to counter your statement.  I don't suppose you could link all of us to this abundance of evidence that you're referring to?

I know this is going back a few days Boo, but I've only just picked up on it. There's a school of thought that maintains that the so-called Black Death was in fact the Pneumonic rather than the Bubonic version. Also, some medical historians of my acquaintance have postulated that it was a mutated strain of Anthrax and not the 'Plague' as we understand it..

I have reams of papers and sources in my files. I'll dig a few out for you if you're interested.
