The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

You guys do realize that that isn't actually funny, right?

Right?

I laughed. A strangled snort, at least.

Take over Nicholas II's body during his coronation, marry some gorgeous 18 year old ballerina and have a ton of incredibly healthy kids, see to it all the key Bolsheviks have "accidents" during their Siberian exile, give Stolypin better body guards, avoid war with Japan in 1905 and make Kerensky a Field Marshall in 1914.  No war at all.

I would have made Brusilov commander. But I thought we were talking about who you root for when you read a history of the conflict or something like that.

I confused Kerensky and Brusilov.  Very anxious.
