Hee! I love Snyder's logic about everything. I was very fond of him while he was around because he got great lines and you've totally done him justice. But I have one question:
"We said sayonara to the limeys in 1773, Janelle. You think about that."
Is this a joke that I'm not getting? Because I don't want to seem...whatever it is that I would seem (pedantic? boring? overly serious?) if you were making a joke and I told you that actually, we declared independence from the limeys the British in 1776, but that's only if you believe our rewritten history of a war we won. The actual war went on until 1780-something. I forget. But off the top of my head, I don't know that anything significant happened in 1773. ???
