Tech and Toys just lists TL7.25 as the 1950s and not any more specific then that.

I think you're over blowing this, in this situation we're two years away from a natural jump to TL7 and only need another quarters TL to get this thing running.

Then he does or he's actually only TL8 or he's just that good with computer related sciences. Your focusing on the wrong thing here John.

Again John, your not working with the premise I've outlined and instead are trying to reengineer it to something that better fit's your style. I'm sorry, but that's not what I want here. I'm trying to get help with the BBEG for a weird war two game I'd like to run if you didn't pick up on the that already.
