Quote:Problem is, all that does is change the numbers.
proposed solution: the stuff was revealed at the last world con (the 2006 one) and we place the SOS-con year at 2011 or 2012.
Current date range is 2013-2015. Six years off that is 2007-2009. Splitting the difference brings up to a start point of 2008 - after the first flying cars and The Guacamole Incident, but more around the point where lots of things start happening - and an endpoint of 2014, just a year off from where Bob and I were making our initial assumptions.
Unless you're assuming that The World Will Change Forever in 2012 for some reason, we might as well stick with 2014 as the story date.---
