Just had a weird thought…nothing unusual, but seems kinda in the moment, at the moment:
Any Anons remember the John Titor story? About a guy who was from the not too distant future, but came back to recover a particular computer (IBM5100) they needed that we had. Also described cell phones and wifi and other things before they were even sci-fi. Described features about the computer no one knew until they interviewed the the design engineer, who said no one could've known that, because only the design group knew it and didn't document the features. stuff like that.
But what crossed my mind, was he described our times as where the federal government went rogue and was taken over by radicals and the cities became hell zones and the Russians of all people came and did a bunch of pinpoint low yield nuke strikes to take out the scourge and return the country to the patriots. Things went back to a simpler time, kind of after that.
Anybody remember this story well enough to say if we're tracking it with the current goings on? I know it was fiction…or think it was, but there's still a lot of controversy about how much he knew and when before he went back.
Weird, but thought I'd drop it here for general interest. I'll see if I can find the full story for sausage. Here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Titor
