Poodle, the History of Pedestria

McPoodle is one of the site's most dedicated researchers, with a commitment to comprehensiveness and accuracy matched only by the thoroughness of his cited sources in his afterword chapters. I bring him up because his latest work, On Getting to the Bottom of This "Equestrian" Business, is a shining example of that dedication to research. It's an alternate history period piece that gets Canterlot High and Earth as we know it to coexist, starring the local version of Richard Feynman. Also, there's a small matter of the Cold War turning hot. (And I may have unwittingly helped inspire the concept, but Poodle's done a lot more with the concepts behind a human religion that produces cutie marks than I ever have.)

I'll have to give it a peek. I've never thought about it before, and when it came up in Oversaturated...
I scrunched. A lot. And whispered "what the fuck".
Because it sounds like Scientology.

Granted it's been quite a while since I've read Oversaturated.

Yeah, I'm really excited about this one. :D

Too bad I'll never have time to read it. D:
