    Well, seeing as how it's a BMW, I'm OK with this.

    Cancer got a reaction from Old Man in Favourite Mediaeval Setting?   
    I've been working on a campaign in Asia and the Indian Ocean, starting about 780 AD, with an emphasis on maritime trade.
     
    In medieval Europe ... I'd probably do North Germany (only because I've lived there), and I would again go for early-ish Middle ages.  That's  Charlemagne's era in nearby what is now called France, and includes the conquest of Saxony, but I would want to include land east of there out to Brandenburg or so, and maybe as far south as the Harz mountains, but that makes the area bigger than I'd want.  The lower tech includes agriculture still on the two-field system, fewer kinds of hardware.

    AI tool identifies hundreds of new possible psychedelic drugs
     
    That link is to a Nature commentary.  New drug discovery is a problem, so this might not actually be making the world worse.  But "AI-discovered psychedelics" sure sounds like an idea for a Champions or Dark Champions adventure.
     
    EDIT: The item reminds me the premise behind a number of things in @Drhoz's Edge City items in the "Quote from the gaming table" thread in the Champions forums, too.

    I saw his live performance back in the 1980s.  It was brilliant.

    Fraknoi's materials are pretty solid for astronomy education stuff, but some of those items will be geared toward young audiences, and sci-fi from the early '60s now seems pretty archaic, I'll agree.

    ‘PDQ Bach’ musical satirist has died
     
    His musical comedy was remarkable in that the more you know about classical music, the funnier it is. I will miss him.

    From the astronomy education mailing list I'm on.  Haven't looked in that link, but the guy who sent this out is a significant name in the astro ed racket.

    Certainly the right spirit, though for real accuracy I think the word "speculation" ought to be replaced with "making s--t up".
