2009

The almanac doesn't record "first breakthroughs". It records the total average. The average will be about 4 dollars in January 2010.

The total average of what and where? What averaging method was involved (there are literally dozens of averaging methods - each just as valid as another when used in the proper situation)? What almanac? Who wrote it? Is it a reliable source? Are there other sources that differ with The Almanac?
 
You see whay I mean by "I don't care if you believe me" followed by an attempt to justify the original admitted unbelievable story?

I personally am convinced that nobody will believe me, which also gives me a bit of a kick, but explaining a theory has nothing to do with justifying anything; it's something that can be discussed whether or not I'm actually from the future.

If it's a fact, as you state, please give us the underlying science that, according to your world's new found understanding of the universe, we are unaware of. I understand that you said that you are not a scientist and not a college graduate but it was you, not one of us, that made the statement with the qualification that is is a fact.

I can give you a rough approximation. I really wish I knew the f(x)=x formulas, though. The universe as you know, has four dimensions. However, unlike a Euclidean 3 spatial dimension (+ time, which is more or less a spatial dimension in GR), you have Hilbert/Minkowski space. This fact explains how light travels. Although Einstein posits spacetime lines which result in a NUMERICAL CONSTANT 'C', and these are interpreted as geodesic lines along which light packets 'travel', this is a "meta-physical' component of the theory. Quantum electrodynamics are being SUPERIMPOSED UPON the Spacetime Manifold via a "Hilbert space'. Let me put it simpler: Electrical behaviour is being SUPERIMPOSED upon Einstein's "Minkowski-space". This is in absolute terms how light moves. It is not movement as much as it is the illusion of reference frames, similar to if you are traveling in a car, and see the moon out your window "chasing you". In this way, once realizing the underlying nature of the motion of light through the universe, you are able to, with the right tools and calculations of course, manipulate the Hilbert space, so as to curve it into the past. This is as MUCH as I could understand.

The total average of what and where? What averaging method was involved (there are literally dozens of averaging methods - each just as valid as another when used in the proper situation)? What almanac? Who wrote it? Is it a reliable source? Are there other sources that differ with The Almanac?

I can't tell you what averaging method was used because I don't create almanacs. I don't remember the name of the Almanac, but it was part of a series, it was volume 30 or so. I can't tell you if there are other sources that differ; this wasn't an investigation. I'm pretty sure it was reliable if it was in my former university's library. The almanac had all sorts of statistics, one of which was gas prices. I can't remember what else was in there though, I checked it out some couple of months ago. What I do remember is being fascinated by the gas price chart, and I went back and checked when gas was 5 cents a gallon (or 1 cent), in 1945-ish.
 
A hilbert space is a space with more than the 3 spatial dimensions. More than that, it is curved in on itself, allowing to measure properties such as angle in it, which is how you are able to bend space-time to connect with a different point in space-time.

I think it would have helped you if you had looked up the definition first. Now the others are going to tear you apart. :oops:

I'm drinking now, and feeling quite good. :D
 
OK..

we got a cat murderer on our hands- stay away from my cats! /ttiforum/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Anyways,

Laser device that can refine itself into molecular analysis? Well I wouldn't say thats impossible. One light strand holds gigabytes of data?

It has been a lengthy read, mate - not sure what your point is, for typing all that up on here-

I know of a paradox-

Real time travelors (TiTOrs) wouldn't be posting on the forum on the net anywhere- anyways- people will not believe until you show definite proof - they all know that- Proof that is tangible and shown it works-

Almanac! LOL.. probably got that off of "Back to the Future" movie part 2 I think-

If I was a time travelor I would probably go back into time and live in that time- I don't want to live here in this time- forget it.. everything's too expensive... wars and rumours of wars, dreams that shatter into the night.

However, like I said.. Its a good read, mate.. I enjoyed that as I have read many articles here for my enjoyment- I am a SCI FI freak who likes to read these such stories /ttiforum/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Thanks for writing it up, mate - I really like that -
 
It's more near Fontana, CA, but it is still in LA County.

Fontana is in San Bernardino county, and not at all close to LA county. So.....strike two!

I mean honestly, there you sit at a computer and the least you could do is use google maps to make sure what you are saying is correct. How will you explain this one?

Fontana is the general direction in which I go from LA. It's about 20-30 miles east of LA county, which is somewhere where I am. I didn't say I was in Fontana, but the landscape in North Fontana is approximately the area I see here. The fact is, in the immediate area outside of LA itself (and a little north), Hollywood, West Hollywood, Studio City, Glendale, Orange County, there are farms.

I'm just bored, and don't have much to do right now, other than getting the stuff I need for Pakistan.

I could try and post a picture or two, maybe a video. Wouldn't be for a while since I don't have any cameras around or photography.

Almanac! LOL.. probably got that off of "Back to the Future" movie part 2 I think-

I'll let you know of the title of the Almanac. I didn't get it from any movie.

If I was a time travelor I would probably go back into time and live in that time- I don't want to live here in this time- forget it.. everything's too expensive... wars and rumours of wars, dreams that shatter into the night.

I completely understand you. There are times which are much better in some respects, but trust me, sometimes when you look at the past, the "good old times", you've simply forgotten the bad, and are focusing on what was great.

Wars and rumors of wars. That's a phrase from the Bible. Do you know anything about the Bible? What dreams of yours shatter into the night?

Hey no problem, whether I am real or not, whether it's true or not, at least you had some enjoyment /ttiforum/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
How many people work on this time travel project? Is it independantly or governement funded? How long has it been in the works and when did the finished product that your using now come out? Have there been other missions, what where they? Can you just fire it up when ever you want or do you have to have months of tedious planning every time you want to use it? Oh, and where are you getting internet acess on an abondoned farm?

Do you know how to check your Private Messages? You have to click the My Home button at the top and they are in the top left corner.

Can I suggest an expirement for when you get back. Maybe you could go back in time and capture any random flock of dodo birds and see if you can bring them back to your time. Off the bat I can't find anything about this that immediatly conflicts on how you're version of time works. Unlike the cat thing were it was you were changing the known past, in this expirement you are chaning an unkown past and as far as you know it was "meant" for you to take those dodos and therefor not changing the past. Just a thought.

That's a phrase from the Bible. Do you know anything about the Bible?
Is it uncommon for people to know about the bible in your time?
It's useless to indulge in anger; by my time all responses will be so inhibited that you'd never even know who to get angry with.
What do you mean by this?
 
Fontana is the general direction in which I go from LA. It's about 20-30 miles east of LA county, which is somewhere where I am.

The fact is, in the immediate area outside of LA itself (and a little north), Hollywood, West Hollywood, Studio City, Glendale, Orange County, there are farms.

You cannot even keep track of your own discussions? Here, let me help you:

You said: I live in a somewhat abandoned farm at the moment, fairly far away from a video store.

Then aerohead said: A farm in LA?

Then you said: It's more near Fontana, CA, but it is still in LA County.

And to be exceedingly clear "it" in your last reply means "the farm". So you are claiming the farm is more near Fontana, CA but still in LA County.

And so, no, you are still wrong. Fontana is not in LA County, so you are lying about at least that part about the farm you are living at. Now above you seem to have changed your story to say something about Fontana being the general direction you "go from LA". That was not the question that was asked, nor that you answered. So you are only trying to muddy the water here instead of admitting you failed to check any facts before you gave your original answer.

Moreover, you were using this answer as some excuse for not being able to go to a video store and rent a movie. And I will say that is BS too, because if you are in any of those cities that are actually in LA County you are not far at all from a video store. In fact, even if you were in Fontana you are not far from a video store! How do I know these things??? Well, I have lived in Rancho Cucamonga (look on your map how close that is to Fontana), Claremont (right on the LA County Line) and various other cities in that part of LA and San Bernardino County. I also teach at Cal Poly in Pomona, which is also very close to the LA County Line in that area. This area is very densly populated, and I can assure you that no matter where you stand in those areas, you are always within no more than 2 miles of a video store.

Why not just admit you got caught in a lie?

By "it is more near Fontana" I meant with respect to the LA which everyone thinks of: Hollywood, etc. It is in LA County in the direction of Fontana with respect to the LA everyone thinks of. No one is trying to muddy any waters.

Why not just admit you got caught in a lie?

I've never claimed Fontana is in LA County. I said I live toward the north, which means north of the densely populated region. I have no car, I have no VCR, so I'd have to walk to a video store which is a nice 2-3 hour walk in the heat. If you live there, I don't understand why you can't understand what is meant by "i live more toward Fontana" not in fontana. I'm simply referring to a place that I know of which is closer to the metropolitan LA. There may be ones closer, but I've never been there, and I don't know them. Does: "It's more near Fontana, CA, but it is still in LA County." by any reasonable imagination mean I am claiming i live in Fontana?
 
How many people work on this time travel project?

There is a not too big room in which I meet with three others for tests, etc., whenever the time comes. In it is a smaller, cabinet room where they do paperwork etc., (where we planned to put the cat). On the top there are the big computers, with 3 monitors, one for cameras, one that checks for errors, and another which has the jump program and so on.

Is it independantly or governement funded?

If it were independent, I probably wouldn't have made it through alive..lots of sloppiness when a few individuals do something so complex, so of course government company.

How long has it been in the works and when did the finished product that your using now come out?

The time machine? Publicly, it has been known for about 3 years. No knowing how many have time travelled. Most probably go into the future, nothing much to do in the past really, unless something like this happens.

Have there been other missions, what where they?

Me personally, no. I haven't met anyone else who has. At the center, no one who has actually gone would want to be constantly harassed by questions and skepticism I imagine, so they probably have kept it secret.

Can you just fire it up when ever you want or do you have to have months of tedious planning every time you want to use it?

We can't. You have to have permission. I assume there's a lot of planning as to when and where to be sent, but none that I personally know of. The training was undertaken once you registered at the center, none you really need after that. All they do is do a quick physical, short tests to see body endurance, and then you go and get "cleaned up" for your jump. How they take you from there to the "coffin" I don't know, you just wake up where you're supposed to.

Oh, and where are you getting internet acess on an abondoned farm?

I change the LAN settings on my computer to something I have which has internet.

Can I suggest an expirement for when you get back. Maybe you could go back in time and capture any random flock of dodo birds and see if you can bring them back to your time. Off the bat I can't find anything about this that immediatly conflicts on how you're version of time works.

Just a thought.

The last time I went to a zoo was over 10 years ago, so they may have reintroduced them. It would be a little hard to go prior to about 50/60 years. The thing is you have to know where you'll reappear. It would take a lot of effort to go back for some dodos.

Is it uncommon for people to know about the bible in your time?

I don't think it's much more different than now.

It's useless to indulge in anger; by my time all responses will be so inhibited that you'd never even know who to get angry with.


What do you mean by this?

You are punished for very petty things. Like a lab rat.

Have there been cloning advances, Like unextincting (retincting?) cloning advances. And besides the fact that it is a long time ago do you think the expirement would work within the confines of the new theory of how time works.

Like jailtime for littering punished or what for example.
 
I personally am convinced that nobody will believe me, which also gives me a bit of a kick

Say it ain't so. It's never ever occured to anyone here that most OETWO's get a kick out of not being believable.
 
Hi Ralph,
I am fairly new here but I do have a few questions. What has caught your attention so much to draw you to this forum? Have you posted on any others? What is your goal exactly with regards to posting here? Do you think any of us will be able to help you with your mission?
 
Hey Ralph how's it going?
How long do you have to hang out at the farm until you have to go and do your duty?
Is someone going to pick you up and take you to the airport? Are you going there physically
or are you just going to do research from your spot there at the farm?

The black cat is so sweet and lovable ....you won't miss it.
hehe



****************ATTENTION TIME TRAVEL CLAIMANTS:*****************
If you interest me I may ask you questions.
This does not mean I necessarily believe what you are saying but only
that I am interested and curious about what you have to say.
I like to gather all the information first and save judgement till the end.
I am here to have fun, interesting and thought provoking conversation.
If you have a sense of humor, are highly intelligent and creative I may end up liking you!
However, This does not mean I will have interdimensional babies with you. LOL /ttiforum/images/graemlins/smile.gif
(If you hate cats it kind of zeros every good quality you have out.:))

I don't really know what to compare it to here. What technology to compare it to? TV's are still TV's, mainly, communications changes I suppose, as have been most advancements from 1970's to 2009. With the exception of time travel of course. Cloning, not the best science. No clones of people.


Like jailtime for littering punished or what for example.

The punishments take the form of placed in cages and having a loud buzz after which you get shocked for about 1 minute. This happens once every couple of hours, except when you sleep. For breaking rules, the magnitude rarely determines the number of days this happens. There is nothing you can do, so nobody fights it and just accepts whatever you're told, since it is either acceptance, or futile efforts to resist, which is not healthy at all.

Hi, I was just looking for time travel discussions and I found this place. No goal in posting except for the conversation, which is fairly interesting. I don't need much help with what I need to do. I know where to get my things. I like your quote by the way /ttiforum/images/graemlins/smile.gif
