The 20th Century: A Collaborative Timeline

So....I haven't seen any collaborative TLs here recently, so I thought I might as well start one! The rules:

1. No killing of any important or famous person unless you get a minimum of three posters to support you.
2. All changes must be non-ASB. (Obvious, but whatever.)
3. Try and keep all of the early changes small, let them butterfly out.
4. Don't post any PODs in the decade after the one we're in until that one is adequately filled.

Here's two PODS to start us off:

June 3, 1901: Nikola Tesla, the famed inventor, receives a massive infusion of money into his Wardenclyffe Tower or "Tesla Tower" project from J.P. Morgan, which enables him to finish it the following year.

October 12-20, 1907: Pyotr Stolypin, Prime Minister of Russia, passes a large amount of legislation through the Duma, most of it focused toward developing heavy industry and reforming draconian agricultural laws.

OOC:

Slightly different Stolypin's reforms there. And yes, I am going for an earlier discovery and use of wireless communication ITTL.
 
November 1907: Adolf Hitler is accepted into Academy of Fine Arts Vienna for his gothic watercolours of several of the city's prominent buildings.
