- Mr. Eric Baring-Gould goes "missing," likely going underground following his Embrace.[1]
- The 46th Council of the Council of Nine meets in Horizon.[2]
- By this year, Difference Engineers all over the United States of America are experimenting with the telephone. The idea — that of transmitting voice as electrical signals — has them excited about creating miniaturized difference engines which run on electricity.[3]
- The 37th meeting of the Technocracy's Invisible College, advancing the Time Table.[4][5]
- The US Census is taken, and requires seven and a half years to tally.[6]
[edit] July
- July 20: James "Gearhead" Peritone sends a letter to the Convention Council regarding the invention of the telephone by Alexander Graham Bell, and the paradigm shift it represents. The Difference Engineers have the Sons of Ether working on a method of using electrical pulses to transmit information.[7]
- Shortly following this, the Difference Engineers rename themselves the Virtual Adepts in honor of the concept of virtual space.[8]
