I logged in and poked around. I think the answer vis-a-vis the worker at Atlantis is simply to have him put 2 turns into a crappy dry cottage SW of the city. Reason being is that the chariot from Valhalla will be able to wipe out the 2nd barb on t68 and we want that worker to be able to reach the dry plains NE of the city to put a turn into the road that turn, before cottaging the FP on t69. If we move him anywhere else, he won't be able to do something even semi-productive and stay close enough to have at least .5 turns of movement to do that.
Re: science we need 360% worth of burn to get the tech in 4t which costs 9 more gold than we have. Costs aren't going to get significantly worse since we're not settling another city before IW comes in, but research might improve slightly as we have a cottage 2t from hamlet, a fish tile we'll start working, etc. So I think this turn let's run breakeven this turn and maybe things will improve slightly so that we can still get IW in 4. If it turns out to be 5, not the end of the world, of course. I made those two moves and ended turn.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?

Heinz beans are indeed a mystery.

There's a cross-cultural difference I didn't expect
I am vaguely aware that UK baked beans aren't really the same as US baked beans (tho I couldn't tell you how I've just been so informed by ex-pat Americans) but I didn't realise Heinz didn't make them  In the UK Heinz and baked beans are pretty much synonymous ... their advertising slogan for a long time was "Heinz Meanz Beanz" (maybe still is, I just can't remember seeing an ad recently). I'm not sure I've ever bought tins of baked beans made by anyone else. I don't think I've ever bought anything else Heinz branded either (tho given one of their other slogans mentions "57 Varieties" there must be something else).
