That is why I've voiced doubts about some modifications to canon involving such things as how much military might is left over for the US military by 2000-2001. My belief is that we come up with reasons why things ended up the way they did in canon, not change the outcome described in canon because the way the timeline in canon is written makes the original outcome implausible.
Does this make sense?

I completely agree with you. I feel badly about it, though, because holding this position seems, well, unappreciative of the massive amounts of time and energy some of the group devote to creating material. Also, I think many if not most of us agree that while Twilight: 2000 in Poland and in the US up to the end of the year creates a desirable (!) atmosphere,
Howling Wilderness is a bit too much of a good thing. Where does that put us?
