I do always wonder about tiny things affecting the ripple of time. I guess that's a common theme in story-telling (Back to the Future, First Edition, that Scott Bacula show?)

This question makes me think of the movie "Inglourious Basterds" - talk about changing history! :)

erin-Actually, the most interesting part of that movie was the moment when history changed. It's always cool when a narrative runs off the rails of history, sort of like when magic appears for the first time in a previously "mundane" story.

I haven't, I guess. I'm usually just awed by what did happen and what is unfolding around me. Revealed providence.

"What if" is the game authors get to play where we dress up like gods and rearrange the chess pieces to suit our vision. There are no limits to where the game can take you. I play everyday.
