Random thoughts that run through my little mind

The Samurai were officially abolished as a caste in Japanese society, during the Meiji Restoration of 1867.

The first ever fax machine - the 'printing telegraph' - was invented in 1843.

Abraham Lincoln was assassinated in 1865.

Which means... there was a 22 year window, in which a Samurai could have sent a fax to Abraham Lincoln.
