Been reading for a while, and hate to make my first comment a nitpick, but ... aren't you missing footnotes in your last post? On a substantive note, it would be ironic if Germany were dragged into the war by a violation of its neutrality... TB-EI

Actually, I'd be inclined to take it at face value. But the Professor may - with the best of intentions and loyalty - be about to expose his community to a world of hurt. Once the Okhrana and the PU are informed that the Germans are looking for turncoats among the Baltendeutsche ... TB-EI

From a Confederate-Victory / Canada-wank TL that's been moldering on my hard drive for far too long: Ye Sons of New England: Originally composed during the War of 1913 [1], this song was adapted by the Federal Republic of New England [2] as it's anthem in 1949. It is sung to the tune of...

Can anyone post a list of Presidents? I know it starts Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Adams, but my memory's a bit hazy after that ... TB-EI

Still don't get it; if Germany is going to be the continental hegemon after the war (and its aftermath), and relations between Britain and Germany are going to cool as a result thereof, why would the opposition be lambasting the government as a coward for not joining in on Germany's side...

France I can see, but Britain? On which side were they supposed to intervene? TB-EI

In making my suggestion, I didn't mean to imply that the NSB would by running printing presses 24/7; this is, emphatically, a hostile act, and doing it on a large scale would attract unnecessary attention. OTOH, as you say, having a source of money directly controlled by the NSB for...

Who's to say that he won't take the idea as his own; the strength of the German scrip vs. the NA złoty has to be galling to the NA. And Dzerzhinski seems like exactly the type of person who would have no scruples about counterfeiting and would feel that it would benefit Poland while only...

ITA. While I have a lot of time for Poznań and its links to Polish history (it being the only major city in Poland that I've had the chance to visit), the likelihood of the German Empire ceding it to a Polish state which it has already spent vast amounts of blood and treasure to bring into...

Work has kept me away for a while, so some rather belated comments ... Excellent ... however: a) No notes on casting? b) The WMTM call letters eliminate the main plot of "Fish Story" (S1E21). While not denying her talents, I would not have been displeased in the slightest if Linda...

If Sabbatai Zevi accepts matrydom rather than converts under duress to Islam, there is potential for the Sabbateans to become another Abrahamic faith; the problem for any author is the potential for the TL to become a Turtledovesque-history-on-rails copy of the rise of Christianity, with the...

This has been one of the PODs that I've wished someone would write a TL on. And very good so far. Definitely subscribed. TB-EI

I see what you did there ... but I'm pretty sure that Carlton has said earlier in the TL that it's not going to happen during this war. TB-EI

Notice that I put "interrupt their viewing" in quotation marks. TB-EI

Brainbin, Just returned after a longish vacation; very impressed with the updates since I left. Two minor comments: On the NHL update: with the divisions as you've set them up, there are going to be some teams (LA, Colorado, Vancouver, Edmonton) with horrific travel schedules / budgets due...

With a POD of October 9, 1950 (the date on which, according to the Genocide, the UN forces crossed the 38th parallel into North Korea), what is the smallest plausible North Korea achievable after an armistice / peace treaty? TB-ES

Speculating on the postwar settlement is probably fruitless, as facts on the ground are going to dictate a lot of what might happen. Nevertheless, I would venture that Russia will probably collapse in a similar matter to OTL WWI; the Patriotic Union supplements Russia's strength now, but if they...

Love the update, but can't really contribute anything - just outside my age range. I have some ideas if you do a follow-up on 8-bit home computers, though - PM me if you're interested. TB-EI

1. No apologies for choosing "The Squire of Gothos"; it legitimately is my favorite episode. 2. Like Thande, I haven't seen all of the TOS episodes; pretty much anything out of my top five could be bumped off. 3. "And The Children Shall Lead" ... well, I'm not particularly proud of this one...
