Well.. yeah, I think the same thing... but we would require some adjustment time ourselves.     If we really found ourselves in 1795... really... it would be a hell of a lot more jarring and hard to take in than it was for Victoria I think.     Sure, you can see there's a pattern, in one character after another looking like familiar people, but you don't get used to something THAT crazy very fast.    You don't start expecting it.     You don't get blase, and think, oh sure, that guy looks just like Maggie's father, big deal...

I can understand her surprise and shock or whatever reaction she had as she saw all these familiar-looking people, one after the other, but after the first one or two instances, I would think she would learn to keep her thoughts to herself and not tell THEM about it!

Also, if someone from the past (like the real governess) came to their future, they clearly would be at a big loss.  But, someone going back in time presumably knows at least some things about those times.  And, Vicki was a teacher - she presumably had a good bit of knowledge of earlier American times.  After her initial shock and disorientation, it should have been a lot easier to comprehend how they would think, and the inventions they wouldn't know about, etc. and to act accordingly.  She might not have been able to pass perfectly, but surely she could have fit in better than she did.

In the ordinary course of things I probably would have just understood that the same actors were playing the roles in different time periods and assume that only we recognized them, that they would be completely different people to the characters.  But, with Vicki telling everyone she met in 1795 how they looked like someone she knew, it sort of set a precedent that the family likenesses were passed down almost exactly.  And, I believe Barnabas once mentioned that Elizabeth reminded him of his mother (and Burke of Jeremiah).  Of course that could have been different in the other time periods, but once that pattern was set, I just believed it was the same in all of the other times, too.

Huh?!!!  Does that mean everyone should just stop using Word?  When is zero-day?

Fortunately, I use WordPerfect, but I do have to convert things to Word at times and sometimes receive things in it.

Welcome, Mrs. McGuire!!  I'm sure you'll enjoy it here!

How wonderful that you're able to get the DVDs from the library.  A great way to get caught up! [santa_smiley]
