RE: Answer to Mix
Hiya Mix!
Yes, ther aer still cities, and they aer quite over-populated in some of them/ most of them.
mega-cities do exist, but they're not walled as you speak of.
You also have to understand that cities like London and Paris have stood, even in this era, through most of your history and eras, and still remain.
What about nature?: there was some fallout, but it was not so severe as to totally upset the balance of everything. There are oddities from that, mutations so to speak, and bizarre things with the weather even a few centuries later. However, nature, being a part of the universe, has a way of adapting, and did just that. As an aside, most of the out of border areas, and a large amount of areas within the broders, have become extremely rural and nature has reclaimed what mankind in your era has violated. But I wouldn't exactly call rampant nature a "haven" it has it's own unique sets of dangers.
Did I personally travel to the future? Technically, this is my future. But to answer directly, operatives of any sort (thuggies, muses, whatever) are generally given a large era to operate in that is roughly from about 50-60 years in their personal future (from the time they were recruited) to about 100 years or so in their personal past. This allows them to blend in for the most part, and they don't tend to experience anything that is a major culture shock to them. For the most part, we bounce back and forth in our own century and there are relatively few exceptions. The whole idea is that no matter what, we more or less appear to be germaine to that era. Besides, it's kind of silly to assume that you'd want to send a 22nd century rougher into the 1950's to blend in and get a job done.
This also might explain some of the problem people here have with my diction. In the early 20th, people spoke much more eloquently, and used different words, than they do now. I am used to such speech, and it is normal, say in the 1910's, but here i am accussed of being English or of hiding behind poetry.
So myself, I have not travelled as far upstream as you mentioned. I've also forwarded the idea that if we can shoot both forward and back, why don't we just shoot forward and see if we win or lose and then copy those actions in our 'now' to insure victory. In so many words I was told to shut up and that I had no idea of how time works.
