Ooooh, I do always find the air of 1968 to be rather fascinating. The Cultural Revolution turning into Civil War, Wallace nearly breaking America and France experiencing chaos are fascinating to see.Might update this when I can with expanded ideas or added countries. The original gist was "May '68 on steroids," but kind of went all over in response to various books and academic readings relating to the upheaval of the late 60's in a global context.

It kind of is, considering how many different fuses had been lit by the late 90s. Frankly, it’s truly astounding that Enron got as far as it did - and considering how much everything depended on Enron continuing to grow endlessly, any Enron which could avert that collapse, or even delay it more than a year or two, would not be the company we all know and presumably love.Dubya was pretty cozy with Ken Lay of Enron fame. It's not hard to imagine a world where they survive into the 2008 recession before dragging down the global energy market.
