  1. Photos from Featherston's Confederacy/ TL-191

    The Lancaster would be the only bomber I know of, that could carry a nuke, at that time. It was designed to carry 20,000 plus payload.

    Communism and Syndicaliasm are very similar.

  3. World War III in May 1946

    Will this ever be released in an edition where you don't have to buy a Kindle to buy the book? I always wondered what a "Kindle" was. In the previous placed I lived, I would sometimes see a Kindle connecting to my open WiFi hotspot, and wondered what on earth a "Kindle" was.

  4. Photos from Featherston's Confederacy/ TL-191

    That sounds like something to something that was posted once in Future History of Purists coming to power in the 2010s and making their own WWIII, with the Purists making their own version of the population reduction that ends up killing around 21 million people. The idea of Purists coming to...

    If that was 7 miles from ground zero, they must have been using something way more powerful than OTL Hiroshima or Nagsaki bombs, at 12.5 and 22 kt, respectively. Just how powerful was the bomb dropped on Brighton?

    Its a possibility, too, that the Olympics in Richmond would have been held in September or October. I would put the dates of a 1936 Richmond Olympics as October 9 to October 25, which would be past the hottest part of the summer, but before the cold of winter would have started.

  7. TL-191: After the End

    If it did exist, who would be the King of rock and roll? Elvis would have been born in the CSA. What happens to Tuplo, MS has never been mentioned in cannon. Also, rock descended from Rhythm and Blues. With much of the black population killed in the southron holocuast, a lot of the big names...

    One three years after the Germans nuke Paris? I don't think so. The radiation levels would probably still be way to high.

  9. World War III in May 1946

    The problem is that neither the US or UK had a bomber with the range to reach, say, Auschwitz, and back, flying from British air bases. That is why the death camps did not really go into operation until 1941, when the Germans occupied enough land where no Allied base would be within range to hit...

  10. TL-191: After the End

    I could see "syndicalism", this TLs version of communism eventually leading to a new cold war, and some version of the Red Dawn (as in the 1984 movie) sometime in that timeline. I could see Mexico possibly going to a syndicalist government, giving syndicalist nations a base from which to invade...

  11. On treating an Allied invasion of Japan realistically

    I read once where Japanese spies reportedly stole planes for the German ME282 fighter and improved on those plans, and had their own force of jet fighters where US ships would have never even gotten anywheres near the Japanese coast. I think this would have extended the war into maybe 1950 when...

  12. Harry Turtledoves Supervolcanoseries

    I wonder if Yellowstone could ever produce an eruption near the biggest supervolcano eruption ever know, about 132 million years ago, when one supervolcano ejected 8600km3 of material.

  13. Harry Turtledoves Supervolcanoseries

    With Yellowstone, the eruptions over the past 17 millions years have varied in intensity to 200km3 out to 2500km3 output. So what would happen would depend on the size of the eruption. 200km3 would be just a little more than the 1815 Tambora eruption (150km3 of eruptive products). Someone...

  14. Land of Flatwater: Protect and Survive Middle America

    Of course, that would only apply to public schools and universities. Privately run schools could do whatever they wanted. State authorities have no say over what private schools do.

  15. Second Civil War

    At the time, there were some in Congress that talked about installing then Speaker Dennis Hastert as President, if the dispute was not resolved, and there were reports of Hastert hastily assembling a transition team, in case Congress did decide to insert him as president.

  16. mass computer pandemic

    Trouble with that is that every IT professional now would have to back to school as the colleges heavily emphasize Windows. Where I went to college, it was drummed into us that Bill Gates was God when it came to computers.

  17. Great movies that never were

    They are eventually supposed to make a ID sequel someday, but it keeps getting delayed. ID 2 was supposed to have been out last year.

  18. WI: 80s War on Pornography succeeds?

    I think if the antenna array had been placed with all the transmission being beamined towards the border, and made where virtually nobody in Canada could receive the transmission that might have been differnt. Just put the transmitter right on the border, with directional antennae that beam all...

  19. WI: 80s War on Pornography succeeds?

    One thing that mght have also happened would have been broadcast TV stations set up in Canada or Mexico near the US border to beam porn into the United States. A TV station in Canada or Mexico is not subject to any American laws. Much like "border blaster" radio, TV stations would certainly...

  20. WI: 80s War on Pornography succeeds?

    However, with the servers outside the United States, that would have been difficult to enforce. A VPN operator in, say, Sweden would only be subject to Swedish laws regarding VPNs. And remember, too, VPN is also used by businesses for secure remote access to their networks. If a foreigner in...
