Re: [DL] Alternate timeline affects on literature

[Paul-André Beaulieu <beaulieu@pipcom.com>]

I've had a weird urge to make my posse encounter Phileas Fogg (of 'Around the 
World in 80 days' fame) and help him with the Western US / CSA leg of his 
journey.

Somehow, I don't see the Rattlers changing much about Dune. Well, maybe the 
Fremen would just get eaten.
