Hello, My name is Akasha.
You all seem to be very interested in "Proof" from all these people who claim to be time travellers, which I find quite amusing. It's very typical of this time period, very sceptical, Understandably enough.
Please don't think I'm laughing at you for wanting "More" than just people's word for something that is pretty unbelievable.
The world has been treated pretty badly so far, and to be honest it continues for quite sometime. I do have some great news for you though. Things do get better, by the end of your lives and as your children are becoming parents themselves. Things do change.
I think the thing you are all really interested in is technology. (What intelligent person wouldn't be)
I'm am so very sorry to say that I cannot tell you anything that might make all this possible earlier than it should. I know it sounds like a terrible excuse, and I would be very angry if someone came and offered information, but only on their terms.
I promise you time travel is possible, I also assure you that it is the hard work of the profs and students that make it possible.
It's worth noting that the first breakthroughs in time travel are actually to be seen in the laboratries of the universities throughout the world, not as they would have you believe, through the governments of the world (I'll talk about politics in a little while)
(They were VERY quick in taking the information away and furthering it themselves, and taking the credit!!)
There were quite a few questions on here regarding hover cars, This makes me smile. Hollywood (Please correct me if I'm wrong...I am a clever student, but that's modern world history to me) wants people to believe in a uniform set of themes for the future, extensive space research... Strict and violent means of control involving authorities like the police... and the ever present hover car idea.
Hover cars (Or "Hovs" as the younger people call them) Have been used, but people use them as novety toys, like you would play with those really small scooters you people raved about for a few years. They are for people with a lot of money. Money to throw away.
Ordinary everyday people still drive regular cars I'm affraid. Nothing very exciting. The fuel has been modernised to cut emissions however, the people that created "Green" cars and "Green" fuels were made to keep quite and strangely these ideas never got off the ground so to speak. I have a feeling that this has more to do with Tax, and what the government stands to lose if we converted to fuel we no longer need to pay as much for.
Computers are so much smaller than the ones you are using. When I saw the one I was supposed to be using for this experiment...to talk to you I mean, I laughed so much. Can you imagine being asked to swap your plasma TV for a wireless? It's so bulky and cumbersome. The computers are very small, and very quick. The average home computer (For leisure) is about the size of a shoe-box (Yes we still have shoe boxes) Everyone uses data sticks, they are like....Do you have the data sticks that go in the USB ports of your computers? I think lots of people do, basically the DVD drive and the Floppy disc drive dont exist on the newer computers, everyone (Nearly everyone) has a data stick which plugs into the front of the computer, it's difficult to use the voice commands at the moment so people do still use a wireless mouse, to drag and drop data files onto the stick. The sticks can also be plugged into pods which can be used for music. We don't have earphone wires... they are very small and they are in ear but no wires.
People don't always use the datasticks, some people have sticks that stay permanently in the computer and it just sends the information to a device...like Bluetooth in this age.
Sound is used a lot more. It's not particularly safe for cleaning humans and animals (Apparently it's fine...but no-one really trusts it all just yet) clothes/ dishes/cars etc can be cleaned by sound though...which really annoyed the soap companies.
Medically people haven't actually changed too much. There is a cure for HIV/AIDS, it has something to do with Silver. I am very sad to say that it already exists somewhere in your time/or is currently being worked upon now. But the government have control of it (USA) And it won't become readily available until it has killed many more people...something that caused riots and widespread anger.
Cancer still exists, but there are cures for many of it's forms and the treatment is far less nasty than it is in your time... (Chemotherapy and radiotherapy will still exist, they will just be given in larger doses...less often..and there will be cures for it's many side effects)
It became compulsory for under 18's to have guidance counselling regarding pregnancies and STD'S (Yes they still exist) mostly because the rate of underage pregnancy particularly in britain reached epidemic proportions.
Bird Flu reached the UK, it had mutated into a strain that could be transmitted from human to human.
Funnily enough after all the scare mongering it did only effect the people who were working with birds...and some medical staff.
Children are given different lessons, your government did decide enough was enough and launched the "Make children, children" scheme... We in the future learn all the things you people should have been taught at schools... social classes, learning to look after yourself in the big wide world. There is also more support for people trying to get into their chosen career.
As risky a topic as it is (although seriously...? what could be riskier a topic than talking to a "time traveller")
Parents are given more responsibility, no longer is the government/teaching body incharge of getting children to school/ teaching them morals/ encouraging them to use contraceptives when they become aware of sex... we operate on a three strike rule... your kids behave badly, you let them jack off school, you let them have sex... you pay the fines
believe it or not... it's turned the country around...people that can't afford to keep paying fines HAVE to make sure their kids treat people with respect and teach them the value of life... Personally as a visitor I agree... it's only looking back that you can see how bad it really got before we did something.
The lower class of this country are the most well mannered polite people you could ever wish to meet
*pauses to laugh for a while.. you'd never think it looking at your country as it is today.
Fat people get taxed! Thats a major development, fat people get taxed depending on how overwieght they are because at one point obesity was killing more people than cancer! After being told that if they didn't make conscious efforts to lose weight to the acceptable level according the the BMI scale they would be taxed...it's surprising how many people used the "Gym for free" scheme!
Each country still has it's own goverment/president...etc etc...but there is a world wide organisation that meets every year...representatives from the "chosen" countries get together and discuss what they are going to do.
Othere events as "proof"
1) Your new pope will reveal his true colours withing a few years...he will be forced to leave his position...but only after managing to persuade a lot of people to do a lot of bad things.
(Please have a look at his history and make up your own minds)
2) There will be an astrological event around 2012 it will be both beautiful and deadly... I'm not really allowed to tell you the specific details...just expect a visitor..
3) There will be a deadly volcano eruption that will cause lots of earthquakes and another tsunami between now and next year. The people that die will do so of their own choice regarding the volcano...the tsunami victims will have been warned
4) I'm terrible with dates, but expect the Conservative party to win the next election.
5) John titor was right about a lot of things...he was right about the olympics... I think he forgot about the winter olympics but the london olympics will not go ahead, there will be too many terrorist scares and the athletes will refuse to play.
6) England do NOT win the world cup this year... I remember that much, (We still have the world cup!)
7) I'm watching your television with intrigue, There is a program called Big Brother on at the moment that they keep trying to revive during our time.
Luckily for us all... they were banned from doinganother one after 2006 because they went too far, and some of the contestants suffered severe mental illnes and one tried to commit suicide.
Food is pretty much the same...less sugary/fatty, and people eat far less meat than they do now...it's widely agreed that it's quite bad for you.
There is a channel six on the TV.. People watched it avidly for a year...and then went.. "What is this rubbish" it's rather a joke now..
I'm signing off now. I have to do some proper work.
p.s. one of the first pleasure flights into space ends in disaster...sadly, they postpone more work on it until they figure out what went wrong...they discover that the company rushed the job trying to get everything working so they could make masses of money. (SURPRISE)
It wont be "safe" for a good few years yet.
BYE.
