Forum:Revenge of the Donut?

I don't know if anyone's familiar with tvtropes.com, but I find it an amusing diversion from time to time as I meander through interesting-looking links from one page to the next. I just discovered an alternate history page. Then came something. . . rather disgusting, actually:

"A secondary type, sometimes called "honorary alternate history", consists of Speculative Fiction stories written a considerable period of time ago, and set in a time period which has since passed. This is what happens to stories set Twenty Minutes Into The Future when the twenty minutes have passed. Robert A Heinlein's Future History series of stories is an example of this type, as is everything that fell victim to The Great Politics Mess Up."

Like Wiki, anyone can edit it, and unlike most wikis, this actually means something: The vast majority of edits are not reverted as soon as an admin has found them. (Instead people respond to one another on the page, like we do on talk pages, only in the articles, so that they seem to be arguing with themselves.) You suppose our boy took his show on the road at some point? Turtle Fan 19:34, September 17, 2010 (UTC)
