I saw that. It was an example of what you end up with when you try to combine the incompatible (i.e. TOS fictional history and STTNG fictional history and actual history). The author tried to recast the Eugenics Wars as something else so as to combine them with the real-world 1990s. I didn't read the whole thing, it was an exercise in futility.
