From the TL in my .sig. The date of landing was chosen specifically to tweak the Americans, which gives you a pretty good summary of Anglo-American relations at the time.

Yes, Ireland is still part of the UK. The Thaumaturgical Monarchy Effect at work, you see, despite the relatively small numbers of ritualists and adepts at the time. Butterflies helped a bit, as well.

If you say so. I'm no expert in Welsh grammar (I had the suspision I put the words in the wrong order, but I just wasn't sure).

I tried to use that phrase in LTTW and I got three different word orders from three different Welshmen, so don't worry about it ;)

(He was given the choice between a long time in prison or the fame becoming the first man on the moon. The mission was considered a failure because the contact was lost. In 1965 a french expedition found his remains. It seems that a realizing that he cannot return to Earth he wrote a book about the need of mankind to live in peaceful harmony and commited suicide after completing his book. That book became a world best seller under the title "Ein Blick vom Mond" (A View from the Moon).)
