    @zodiacpisces1971, do you have a smart phone? You can access the internet from a smart phone.

    Were smartphones in existence 25 years ago? Was the character of the waiter created 25 years ago, if both the character & the phone weren’t even aforethought then, it’s probable to google crumbs & Susan on what given as to when a wedding announcement made the Salem Papers now?

    So by following your logic, only events, people, etc. that occurred after smart phones were invented are able to be googled? This makes no sense. I don’t understand your question.

    Also, most newspapers have made their archives of articles available on the internet. The New York Times has archives going back to 1851. So it’s not unusual for Susan’s wedding announcement from years ago to be available online through a google search.

    My post is this, with how you had brought up that The New York Times has archives going back to 1851. My post is this: With Ava & Harris in London. The London Times has archives going back to 1785. We are dealing with fiction. Not reality. So you tell me how in the world of fiction, does The London Times has archives that can be googled by a character that came into play 203 years later & then when 34 years later came into play, he can google it in a smartphone that is owned by a character, in which, both weren’t even existing as the time of the wedding announcement & why would the London Times have that wedding announcement, given that the impending nups made the headlines in Salem, not London. I kind of doubt that it was a big deal in London, given that Edmund & Susan married in the U.S. not the U.K., now did they?

    Edmund was British. Don’t overthink this. It’s simple.

    Who’s overthinking. You were the one that brought up The New York Times & thought that it was a wise move to bring up The New York Times & think that it fits in the world of fiction. All I did was to remind you that the soap-world has nothing to do with a newspaper & how far back its archives came into play, so I dished it right back to you by bringing up the London newspaper, given that’s where Ava & Harris had googled it, that is all.

    @doolfan, it’s futile.

    How exactly am I overthinking. mommytutu brought up a real 21st century newspaper & when it was first brought up as to how long & how far back their archives went, that given as to when & how Ava & Harris had learned about the wedding announcement, & EdUsan married in the Colonies, as it were, you going to tell me that a British waiter & his cell-phone both of them never existed until now, would have the announcement for the two characters that no one wants to see managed to find it?
