Nebula finalist 2014

2014: American President Obama's sanctions end the Russian threat forever,
Scottish voters resolve to remain tied to the plunging anchor that is
England, and Toronto's Mayor Ford makes Toronto, a Canadian community
home to more than one hundred people, world-famous.

Most importantly, James Nicoll Reviews launched this year. Can you
tell I don't generally review anthologies or magazines unprompted?

that year. Of course, mere factuality was never a prominent element
in the Puppy blatherings.
