Trained for rockets and spacecraft, confined to computers. Love history. I love people's stories and learning more of my own. Here to find a refuge from RWNJs.

Have you had Valentine Bowman?
It's quite nice. It's also got a great backstory. He was a young officer on the frontier during the Revolution. He was captured by the Choctaw and traded to a Spanish merchant for a keg of whiskey.

You don't want a company town. Do you want coal camps, the battle of Blair Mountain, the Matewan shootout, and on and on recreated all over the place? Do we really have to relearn everything about once per century?

The 2nd dose laid me out for a day. The father of my kid's friend had shingles. He has long term effects with nerve pain across a fair sized part of his back. That was enough to convince me!
