No LBJ means no Civil Rights Act of 1964. He basically twisted every arm he could get his hands on in Congress to make it happen. He called in all his chips on the ones who didn't respond to the arm twisting. Look it up, a lot of it is on tape.

Or the Librarian(s)!

I agree, though they may get caught in a loop where they are just continually going back to make the tweak that fixes whatever it is they screwed up.

They established themselves as and still live as Texans. They rose to power in Texas politics and lived a great deal of their lives there. They are both retired there now. I think it's safe to say they consider themselves Texans.

Good idea on comparing the versions. It seems what they're doing now is checking a Wikipedia-ish site and comparing it to Lucy's memory. Comparing the data would clue them in on more subtle changes, like a different person inventing a technology or an event that didn't happen.

The data is stored on the tablet, not in the cloud. When you download Wikipedia as a whole you're mirroring or making an image of the site. Your computer can then use that image as if it were the website, directly from your drive - no Internet required. It is a static image, so you'll need to occasionally download the…

Yeah, leading with "your father is a Sith Lord who gets his kicks killing younglings," probably wouldn't have worked.

That was the first thing I thought when Flynn shot Travis.

Sage advice.

Washington's teeth, ink from Franklin's print shop, and a lock of Hamilton's hair (you can substitute Lin-Manuel Miranda's in a pinch) all boiled down in one of Revere's copper pots.

Yes, it's called a Bowie Knife because he and his brother invented the style. Jim Bowie made it famous after a duel in which he fought off several men after being stabbed and shot.

Exactly.

You can download Wikipedia and store it on your computer. No wifi needed. Unless you use a chromebook.

"'Merica."

And is still in awe when she meets Davy Crockett.

True. What little we know of his character is that he thinks he's doing the right thing.

Like a bottle of Jefferson's wine, Washington's teeth and maybe Coolidge's saddle?
