Yoshida: 15

I have found another anomaly, this time on my own. It was the recurring mention of the bicentennial year in Taras' post that piqued my interest, and even a cursory glance at the data proved the date to be preposterous.

There is no chance that the United States of America gained its Independence in 1776 A.D. The supplies were not in place, the forces hopelessly inadequate... every factor indicates that a winnable war against England could not possibly have succeeded until a few years later. I will not bore you with further details, as they are similar to those of my last post.

Mrs. Howland, does this date jump out at you as being wrong?
