[DL] Alternate timeline affects on literature

[Sitting Duck <sittingduck_1313@yahoo.com>]

As an example, in Jules Verne's Around the World in
Eighty Days (which is set in 1872), a transcontinental
railroad makes it possibly to go from San Francisco to
New York in seven days. But since in the Deadlands
timeline, there is no such thing, how could Verne get
around it?
Also, how would the presence of rattlers affect Frank
Herbert's writing of Dune?
Though this isn't literature, I have had some weird
thoughts on Rocky and Bullwinkle against the Reckoning
(possibly creating a disturbing image of Stone
shouting "KEEL MOOSE!").

=====
I have come to the conclusion that one useless man is called a disgrace, that two are called a law firm, and that three or more become a Congress.
