To: All those that have worked on 1983: Doomsday in the past and present;

To be honest, I did not join AltHistory Wikia because of 1983: DD. However, I have to say, finding it has been a treat.

So much work has been put into it: realism, referencing, creativity, the utterly massive discussions on what would otherwise be insignificant or unimportant events. I mention this especially after reading the NBC-TV News Broadcast and Associated Press teletype reports articles I read earlier today. It made me actually pause for a moment, and realize ''Oh my God. That is what could have happened. I was utterly dumbfounded after that moment: stupefied that someone would actually describe the last few minutes of an NBC broadcast or the Associated Press teletype.'' That really struck it home to me: you people who have worked on this for years, and know every in and out of the world, want to create a piece of art, forever enshrined on the indestructible force that is the Internet. Taking a single moment in history that the majority of the world has forgotten, and revolving an entire world around what would other wise be yet another footnote in history.

You have all worked so hard on making 1983:DD so realistic and plausible, that mere words cannot be enough to describe your accomplishments in exploring Alternate History, and your explorations of the world of "What if?"

Kudos to everyone who has worked together on this. I have thought before that this project was "dead," but, no, its very much alive and well. And, hopefully it will remain so for the foreseeable future.

Sincerely,
