Yup. I would recommend the book "Replay" by Ken Grimwood, which gives some interesting insight into this topic... also "I Killed Adolf Hitler" by Jason (graphic novel).

Replay:Amazon:Books
I Killed Adolf Hitler:Amazon:Books

On a side note, I actually love the idea of this thread - just got turned off by the OP!

The OP will have his character judged due to his post, but that's another topic.

I am personally interested in the seemingly minor details that affect history.


...Like, what if Einstein wasn't of Jewish heritage?
...What if all the ships that set sail on Mr.Columbus's made it?

What if King Edward VI of England hadn't died young?

What if all of humans come from the protozoa that evolved into Mexicans, Gays, Jews, and Liberals?

The conservative protozoa carried little guns and bibles.

Protozoa had no such things.

They just bred and consumed.
