It was always burning since the world's been turning...

I actually did this some 14 years ago in Drunkard's Walk II -- Doug uses the song to give people in his area of effect a very compressed experience of living the last half of the 20th century in his world. Lemme go dig the lyrics out of the appropriate chapter:
Quote:Harry Truman, Doris Day, Red China, Johnnie Ray,
South Pacific, Walter Winchell, Joe DiMaggio,
Joe McCarthy, Richard Nixon, metahumans, television,
North Korea, South Korea, Marilyn Monroe.

...

Little Rock, Pasternak, Mickey Mantle, Kerouac,
Sputnik, Chou En-Lai, 'Bridge on the River Kwai'.
Lebanon, Charles de Gaulle, California baseball,
Starkweather, homicide, mutants from thalidomide.
Okay, that's from chapter 7 of DW2, which I released in 2000. Those are really the only two divergences.  And since Warriors' World is a close alternate of Krypton-1, your change probably applies to WW and vice versa.

Feel free to post that example in your thread, if you like.
