id visit a year from now and get the sports statistics and bet enough to finish paying for flight school, and maybe bet enough for a new eclipse 400 airplane.


Good choice.

if you had a time machine,what time would you visit? and why? i myself would go back to watch how the pyramids,where built..

I would quest cross-time and see where all the branches went.

Wouldn't that be a trip...

to an unknown date in the past to see what were Dragons. Dinosaurs or Lizards in a tall tell, like families fishing or hunting stories...

i like theories that say time isn't linear. more interesting that way.

one problem i've never seen addressed in time travel stories or theories is conservation of mass and energy. i think if i went back in time i'd need to simultaneously send an equal amount of matter and energy forward to my present to maintain balance. otherwise, i'd leave the past with an excess and the present with a deficit.

and they always talk about not interacting with your past self. well, how picky should be be on that? my body could be made up of any number of things from the past. maybe i ate an apple right before i traveled back but in the past i stepped in some poop that was supposed to fertilize the tree that grew that apple and as a result that apple wasn't quite ripe in time for me to eat it? so by stepping on that poop i'd be stepping on one of the building blocks of me. not cool.

and let's say i go back to 1988 or something. some kids are riding skateboards, wearing jams and saying everything is "rad". a hot chick walks by in a thin shirt and a cool breeze switches the headlights on....but the skateboarders don't see because i'm standing in the way. i've just stunted their development!

I would go back to 9-10-2001 and stop the friggin terrorist hijackers. drinker


Just wanted to echo this sentiment! drinker

And, for the families and friends of those who endured that terrible day..i cannot begin to offer enough condolences, there are no words...just an emptiness, a void i don't think we can ever fill..but we can try.

Or would you cause a new branch in the past and a possible branch in the present.

Not a tree but a rose bush on the desert of time.

I would go back to the last day that god worked and meet him
face to HIM and talk of his later kingdom here that he created.
:heart:



Nice!

Take a quick look in the mirror. What you have done that enriches life... Is gods work.

Hmmmm?... Well now that I think about about it I would most likely put about 40 pounds of C-4 in it, set the timer and run for my life. Although there are some good things that might be possiable to use it for, I have this sneaking suspicion that it is probably more power than the human race needs to play with...Kinda reminds me of another invention that we should have left un-invented, the atomic bomb.oops slaphead

I would like to go back to 1972 and accept the art scholarship rather than the MRS. I was offered. I am sure it would have made my life much easier.

I want a time machine with the Doctor in it. And that's final!

But I'd want to have the ability to go in space as well. To see a new world being born, or basically any kind of space pyrotechnicsbigsmile

good sentiment, but it would cause some problems for the rest of us. he wasn't sent here to become a great carpenter and die peacefully as an old man.

however, he'd be a great boss to have on a construction site. you'd never have to bring your lunch. jesus just brings a fish sandwich to the site every day (and writes if off as a business expense) and turns it into a bunch of them. sure he could just keep one around from the last batch but he'd want to multiply freshness. nothing but boring water to drink? not for long...wine! and safety precautions are pointless when your boss can just zap you back to life if you fall off a ladder.
