Events

 * Calvert Wycoff, leader of the Prophets of Jehovah, immolates himself in a Taint-ridden explosion that affects most of the American Midwest. Although the effects are not immediately apparent, the detonation has rendered most arable farmland useless. The area comes to be known as the Blight. (AB: Aberrant: Teragen, p 99)
