For him time travel would be just a boring distraction!

The way I read it, him and his cohorts at The Omega Point are causing it.

Sorry, I meant Time Travel itself.

You gave the reference to Tiple's paper and then hypothesized he might find Time Travel boring. I merely meant that after reading what his Omega Point concept is, I'd have to say he's postulating that everyone from there/then (the last seconds of the universe) is controlling what we here/now are doing anyway, including Time Travel itself. The other way I see to look at it is that WE ourselves ARE IN the last seconds of the Universe (before the big crunch) and are living in a fantasy of our own doing without knowing it.

At least, that's MY take on what HE's saying.
