Guardian: A great review for Stephen King’s new book, 11.22.63, on the affect of preventing that dark day. As this blog is a great science fiction fan and in to time travel, the death of President Kennedy has been a stable of that world for years, there was the Twilight Zone Episode, a History Professor change history, bad results, there was Quantum Leap, that had Sam change history but to the history we already knew, that day in November was even darker, ( spoilers in case you have not seen the episode ), then there was a TV film with the actor from Airplane, in which a History Professor goes back to Dallas, changes History, tells LBJ all the bad things that happen, expecting LBJ to change policy, reverse happens, LBJ doubles down on Vietnam. Then old Big Ears, the 9th Doctor ( Time Lord - Doctor Who ) turns up to watch the death of a President. Also Red Dwarf folks, in a way a very moving episode, that allowed JFK to be a hero, a liberal hero, very odd. But am curious folks, and thus will buy the book, I blame the Doctor.
