Just in case : “1984” was written in 1947. The original title of the book was to be “1948″, the editor asked Orwell to change it so he reversed the numbers.Or so I have heard, I can’t seem to find the confirmation, if anyone could confirm or infirm ?
Didn’t George Orwell preempt him in “1984”?
Reagan took office in 1981.
Is this a joke?
