  1. Carolingian-Byzantine Union?

    Would such a thing have been possible, and if so, how? What would be the repurcussions on Europe, Muslim expansion, Christianity, etc? Hvaing only rudimentary knowledge of this era, I can't really postulate on anything more complex than that.

  2. The Return of William Proxmire

    A short story from my favorite SF author, Larry Niven. Basically, William Proxmire, in an effort to slash the space program for good, uses a time machine to go back in time and cure Robert Heinlein of his pneumonia while he's still in the Navy (figuring, without him writing sci-fi, most NASA...

  8. Fear and Loathing in the White House

    In 1970, Hunter S. Thompson (gonzo journalist, famed druggie, and author of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, among other things) ran for sheriff of his county (Aspen Colorado), on his 'Freak Action Party,' and lost by only 4 percentage points. His 13 goals for being sheriff sounded reasonable to...
