To be fair, using a western/local dating system is common in historical study. I certainly didn't use ancient Roman dates when I studied classical history.

Then why was GWB's inauguration bigger? Too? Did it change to being democrat in the 2000s?

And it wasn't record-breaking counting net, live, and tv either.

Not sure what the point there is. It obviously did. Vile abuse happened to the powerless all over the world then and still does now. Like I said elsewhere though, as a Latina living in America right now, there is nothing that would induce me to switch circumstances with any 19th century woman ever.

At that time? Sure. Though it would seriously be an apples and oranges kind of situation. But compared to now? I'm a Latina and nothing would induce me to switch places with any 19th century woman. Not on your life.

All "grandsires" exist before their grandchildren. Barring an "I'm my own grandpa" type situation.

Well I think her work is an unalloyed delight. Satirical yet kindhearted. Somehow both gentle and incisive.

Nope. But they probably worried quite a bit about being sexually assaulted or abused by their employers and nobody would have cared. There is a reason that Charlotte Bronte was able to write so comfortably about abused, damaged children (torturing puppies) and battered women. Being a female servant to the wealthy…

She perfected the modern novel. Before her it was all epistolary nonsense.

You're really trying to argue that people in the US today have it harder than the Bronte sisters? Who couldn't vote and who, if they married (the best option for all women then), would not have been legally permitted to own property?

Well that makes sense then. But it's hardly the same situation as Hannah where she comes in conscious and ambulatory and thus able to answer the standard medical questions.

Wow. I don't think I've ever not been asked whether I was pregnant by the triage nurse (or whoever) before seeing a doctor. Isn't it in almost every form you have to fill out before seeing the doctor?

So, if Snyder had dressed Batman in a blue and red costume with a large S on the chest, it would be totally fine and true to the character because there is another superhero who wears red and blue and an S?

Don't they always ask you if you're pregnant before you see the doctor? My friend broke her leg and that was still one of the first ER questions.

In what way? Why shouldn't a fantasy/sci-fi show play with and create its own world?

The default is for information to be public because we don't live in a police state. It would more be that we should act to make it private (if you think that's a good idea).

I guess it depends on context. For me, weddings were a chance to have all my old friends who scattered across the country meet up again. Gets the band back together.

It's deliberately not specific about time. Which is sensible. Why chain yourself to a time period when you're adapting a comic book unless there was a reason to?

There does seem to be some sort of Lenny since the Division guys talk about her. But the Lenny in his head could just be using her face and inserting her into his memories to better control him.

It looked like the same Dr Kissinger from the pilot to me.
