History is full of "out of their time" characters, from Leonardo to Raimondo di Sangro (wiki him!) to Jules Verne to H.G.Wells.

I am confident one day Man will master time travel.

To the skeptics: in the late 19th Century, it was scientifically proven (???) that trains and automobiles could not speed beyond 20mph (36 Km/h = 10 meters / second) because the wind would have caused death to the crew and passengers through asphyxia.

Uh, yea, sure... Wink

So, they said, a plane cannot fly faster than sound.

Roll Eyes

Uh, yea, sure... Wink

And, you can't go in outer space because the vacuum would suck you into shrivels.

Roll Eyes

Uh, yea, sure... Wink

Any more for any more ?

See you yesterday !!!

Reply #6 - 10/31/10 at 05:27:07 Aww, Now, I dunno,,, I dunno if I WANT to go running down that road. Ive been known to get lost on roads I can see, where I can find someone & ask for directions. Sounds like a pretty scary idea, be out there, zipping along thru time, & wind up somewhere & no one could help That "Lost TRaveller".

Im starting to wonder just who you are trying to convince. You seem so focused on something you are just sure doesnt exist..you trying to convince yourself? You sure arent having any luck with me, because I KNOW better.

Are you making a statement ? Or trying to sell antique hearing aids ?
Or is this a trick because I didn't give you candy ?

The only interests I would have in time travel would have are two fold:

1. To be present at some of the really important dates in history, like hearing the Gettysburg Address in person, or some of the debates in the Continental Congress over the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution - that sort of thing; and

2. To relive some of the really important days in my lifetime. Maybe a fun day like the Friday night that my high school football team won our league championship, or with my Dad at a baseball game when I pitched really well and seeing the smile on his face again. I'd like to relive my wedding day, and see the look on my wife's face as we exchanged vows - I can remember it, but I'd really like to see it again. Maybe my first solo flight. The night my daughter was born. Then there are a few days that I'd change what I did that day, as I'm sure we all would. Just a day here and there, nothing permanent.

But I would have no desire to actually live my life in a different time - I like this time - no time in history is perfect, but right now suits me fairly well. I would have no desire to live before modern medicine, and a few modern conveniences like air conditioning, modern automobile and airline travel. Even modern eyeglasses - at my age now, I'd be a visual cripple if I had to live 400 years ago.

Imagine having the possibility to "invest" a few thousand dollars (I really mean "a few", 2000, 3000, max 5000) and go back to... the '50s and enjoy a looong holiday on that kind of money !

Imagine living a "quasi-real life" adventure, go back to when Apollo 11 took off and filming everything on a digital camcorder, snapping pictures on a digital camera, sporting an LCD watch on your wrist etc...
Maybe even driving a Prowler or a Viper, equipped with GPS and a few other items of technological "Wizardry"...
...maybe even enjoy a high-speed chase with the local Sheriff egged by "Men in Black" etc. in "Smokey and the Bandit" style...

Yeah, I know, I'm just daydreaming, but it could be an idea for the basic plot of a TV serial.

Cool
