Adding to what @Agent23 said - besides slavery didn't the local tribes practice human sacrifice? Or was that further west, the Mound Builders (or a similar name)? But getting to the other coast is not that difficult - cross the mountains, sail down whatever to the Ohio, then down to the...

Thank you for the new knowledge. Lanse aux Meadows was what I mean when I said "Newfoundland presence confirmed by archeology". Buba bounces up and down waving frenetically with one hand, TPK placard in another ...

AFAIK Basques etc. fishing the Grand Banks pre-Columbus is a "theory taken as fact", without proof.

I missed that the whole of Manhattan is ISOTed. Benefit - more skills get carried over. Drawback - many more mouths to feed. The fact that there are some 40 thousand Police and many more armed guards does not change the fact that there is no food. So, an even bigger Vlad Tepes award :P Fun...
