This is terrific, and I hope you do more for the other Movements, etc., whenever you can spare the time. Two comments:

2176 Apparently the Red Sox didn't manage to win the 2004 Series in the UF universe.

Naturally. If we stipulate the UFverse as being a parallel universe, with the point of divergence being the events of UF Core 1 and 2 (1991?), not to mention First Contact with the Salusians in (1999?), then the much-ballyhooed butterfly effect had already produced Big Changes by 2004; many of the players who buttressed that Sox team would be playing for other teams, if they were even in baseball at all at that point. The Earthwide and domestic US political situations would have been very different, among other things, too; I occasionally find myself idly wondering who ran in the 2000 election in the UFverse, let alone who won. (It's something to speculate on during a particularly dull spell at work, after all.)

He also has a cousin named Samantha whom he hasn't seen in years.

This Samantha Carter?
