MLK Jr. and Anne Frank were the same age.

Abe Lincoln got a fax from a samurai.
(Okay that didn’t actually happen - but it could have)

Abe did get fanmail from Karl Marx though

Abe was a superstar. Everybody wanted a taste.

I wonder what Abe and a samurai would've talked about.

Which brand of fax to buy

Why the kitana was a super-sword.

Kinda random, but: the first device capable of measuring the size of an object to a one millionth of an inch resolution was built in the 1840s. So this would have been old technology when Abe got his fax.
