It's history repeating! LMAO!

I'm so dense I didn't notice a lot of these earlier. In Maniac Mansion: Day of the Tentacle, history repeats many times. ::grin::

Fred (present) = Red (past) = Zed (future)
Edna (present) = Zedna (future)
Ed (present) = Ved (future)
Dywane (present) = John Hancock (past)
George Washington (past) = Harold (future)
Sleeping conventionier (present) = Sleeping man in the human contest (future)
Cigar salesman (present) = Ben Frankin (past)
Broken carriage (past) = Broken car (present)

and if you really want to stretch things...
Fred (present) = Doctor Tentacle (future)
Ted (past) = Ted (present) = Ted (future)

And there's probably a ton more I haven't picked up on or refer to the first game, such as the amazing speed of the mailmen.
