And fucking Moonbase Alpha would have been up and running, and Huey, Dewey and Louie would be looking after those biospheres out near Jupiter.

Yup. When I started school in 1978 they asked us kids what we thought it would be like in year 2008. Most of us thought that we'd be flying instead of driving cars.

Those Romans were pretty brutal in throwing away odd kids, so, there might have been an effective 'cure' for our kind of people. Especially for the ones that don't fit in in the pedigree idea about functioning autistics.

And going to the toilet could still have been the social thing to do.  :zombiefuck:

(Oh, it is in some places in Sweden, according to Lit, and the Romans never got that far up north.)
