1933 Walker: Fact or Fraud — Art writing guru James Gurney with a cool little squib on something downright steampunk.

And in truth, it's no more ridiculous and counterfactual than believing we had to invade Iraq because they had anything whatsoever to do with the 9-11 attacks. (Via The Edge of the American West.)
