Dear Davidsch,
Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you were referring to things that might be reflected in the VMS or helpful to a solution.
I have several history books I can send you to help with the other things. Please let me know if you want them.
Thank you.

Dear Koen Gh.,
I bet you didn't look at the picture of the cannon firing in the VMS, did you? I don't think it is a generic cylinder or would be confused with a microscope.
I don't think you could have looked at Ellie's blog entry, either. You wouldn't have confused a microscope with the cannon.
Or are you saying a cannon, like a microscope, couldn't have been pictured in the VMS because they weren't yet invented? Your phrasing in your rush to denial kind of leaves the interpretation of your answer open to question.
I think the English were using cannons in battle as early as 1346 at the Battle of Crécy. A few years later, still in the Fourteenth Century, they were used by the English at Agincourt and the siege of Calais. Others were using cannons much earlier.
Thank you.
