As a reference librarian and big-mouthed commie pacifist, let me just say that this is the best thing you've ever posted, and that is really saying something.
And if you liked that, you might like this. I started a conversation with a guy from this site years ago aimed at turning the world timeline into an online/offline game complete with cards like Magic the Gathering, only sets divided by politics, religion, environment, culture, science, geography and so on. I still think it would kick ass but I don’t have the time. Maybe one of you librarians can get it started.
