Time is all mixed up here. There is a committee working on that. But what will be the attraction once they get it going is that Riverside, Iowa is the future birthplace of James T. Kirk. James T. Kirk is a character from Star Trek, a television show about the future that was canceled years ago. This adds to the confusion.
People have to talk about the television series in the past tense, fondly, nostalgically.
It's over and done, existing in reruns. By all accounts this was Steve Miller's idea. As I looked for him I visited the sites of importance in the future boyhood life of a made-up boy who would become, in his own future, a Starship Captain. During that day in Riverside, Iowa, I did transport back and forth in this warp in time, but also I traveled through the thin membrane of fact and fiction. I've read that one.
