I’ve always been a fan of alternative history/alternative universes fiction, and although I personally never played Frank Chadwick’s (pen & paper) roleplaying game Space 1889, I had many friends who did, and I really liked the concept.

(By the way, if you happen to like that kind of fiction too, don’t miss Ira’s Alternative Reality News Service Cafe!)

In the wake of this meme, serious storytelling should commence on the spot.
