Re: Answer to Rainman & Packerbacker
I think we've heard just enough from you. I have read this thread several times and my list of problems with your story gets so long and large that it honestly becomes not worth even talking about.
I will point out that the simpler or blunter the question posed to you, the longer and more eloquent your response- guess you can't dazzle us with brilliance.
And all of this with no actual answer.
And for future reference, spouting away non-stop in the third person is called narraration, not dialogue.
You need to go away now.

I originally had a well-worded and pointed response to your insulting and demeaning manner, as well as your commandment for me to leave.
However, I am above such callous and crass things and deem to simply tell you that if you do not like my dialogue and do not wish to see it that you should 1) stop tallying a list (which requires obvious interest and attention) and 2) don't read it.

Re: To jmpet
I posted something here weeks ago and was amazed to see you still here dodging and ducking questions.
You do realize not a single person here believes you and the day after you go away, this thread will get buried, lost and forgotten don't you?
All you are doing here is wasting your time and inconveniencing photons with your rabble.
As far as my list goes, it is a list of the dozens of things wrong with your story and yeah- I agree you want it ignored.
Now shoo. I've taken down much smarter people than you on this site. Your story holds no water and in all honesty- you're boring. If you had a better story to tell I would gladly let you ramble away but at this point, all you're doing is digging your own grave and frankly it's embarrasing to see you spend so much mental effort on something absolutely no one here believes.

Jmpet;
Fine, I was prepared to ignore you casually and with honor.
You have not only thrown the gauntlet, but you have stated that you make a career of debunking things that you cannot possibly have any knowledge of.
Just so you know: photons are particles of light waves and rabble is a group of stereotypically dirty and disorganized persons that are generally looked down to. From your stance, the looking down to part is at least correct.
So insult me, insult my intelligence in your sideways and condescending manner. I may be forgotten, but have illustrated your pining for attention by dethorning me from my lofty stance.
So be it, have at it. Unless I truly bore you, as you say. If I bore you to such depths, why did you bother to answer?
I shant 'shoo' nor shall you force me. So you make the call, amigo, is it politeness and respect; or do you choose to attack?

Re: To jmpet
>Just so you know: photons are particles of light waves<
Yeah- I know that. And those tens of thousands of little pixels on your monitor are photons too. You are inconveniencing photons by posting your rant. The subatomic realm called- they want you to stop wasting their resources. Now do you understand?
>So insult me, insult my intelligence in your sideways and condescending manner. I may be forgotten, but have illustrated your pining for attention by dethorning me from my lofty stance.<
This is probably my biggest complaint about you- either you're speaking in all ten dollar words or speaking some wacky and annoying made up slang. Speak normal people talk, dammit.
I was not being condensending to you and I still am not. The simple truth is that you've played out this little game- the only thing that remains at this point is for you to be debunked.
Someone asks you a ten word question and you launch into a thousand word reply that ultimately has no answer in it- no one's got a half an hour to read your non-reply replies.
You have already spent over six weeks here trying to prove you're a time traveller and it ain't working- you have made no predictions, you have no interesting story to tell, you constantly contradict your own words and when you're cornered, you turn into Mirriam Webster- what's up with that?
>I shant 'shoo' nor shall you force me. So you make the call, amigo, is it politeness and respect; or do you choose to attack?<
Shant? SHANT?!!! Is "shant" even a word? When's the last time you ever heard ANYONE say "shant"? Get real, man. Stop narrarating.

Answer to Scully
Hello back to you Scully!
I'll answer your questions in turn:
1) Do people still smoke cigarettes in in the 2300's. Yes, but not as an hourly habiot as I have seen here. The foprtunate ones have only the best hand-rolled cigarettes, and the downtrodden have only the worst. Ther are still commercial versions available, but they are very pricey. Those, such as meself, that enjoy the cancerous libations of tobacco, get ourse elsewhen and bring them back. We have a pertty flroid barter system in YAZ for such things. The general populace tends to enjoy a smoke every now and then. There are also other types of smokables available that calm nerves, send one into a relaxation state, and do some other things. The powers in control tend to not atempt to dictate whether or not you can imbibe anything tha tis harmful to your own person, they just like to control every other facet of your life. As the governemnt controls tobacco, that is simply another means of exerting that control.
2) Instant medical gratfication: It does occur for a small percentage of the populace, but high-end medical care goes to those in power first, their commanders secondly, the troops thirdly, the support infrastructure after them, and the general populace as an afterthought. Although these technologies exist and are as advanced (more or less) as you imagined, they are not readily available.
3) The end of the Mayan Calendar: After December 2012, Janurary 2013 began.
4) Global warming and the pole reversals: GLobal warming is not truly an issue. if you look back about 40-50 years ago, your time string, you can see agruments about global cooling. the world, and also the universe, thends to right itself regardless of what happens. A pole reversal, although constantly predicted, has not happened.
5) Food! My favorite is Pizza from anywhen from the early 1080's to about 2012 or so (nothing to do with the Mayan calendar). I also enjoy English chips when they're done just right. a typical fare involves mainly the same kinds of foods that you would be eating now. For most people, this is locally grown, harvested, and slaughtered. There are no idiotic concerns about chlosteral, of carbohydrates, and other such nonsense, people finally realizing that eating well and being active tend to allow the body to naturall be healthy. the being active part is easy, as most spend the huge majority o the day working. There are vitamins of sorts that will give you everything except the protein that you need for a full day of activeness. They come in flavors such as steak, or pancakes, etc. I find them to be terrible, but they make for good field rations when other foods are not available.
6) Are beds different?: Yes! My mattress at my bunk is filled with pockets of air covered with a type of foam. I can make the mattress more firm or soft per my desires. I can also increase support to my lumbar area if I so choose. Most of the lower class peopkle sleep on a plastic-foam type mattress, or a simple cloth-filled type.
7) new materials for clothes: Cotton is in strong use still. there are many different types of clothing available, and many other types of cloth, but I am not well-versed in such things. The military uinits of the reich tend to wear a type of poly resin fiber with strands of metal interwoven. similar to your kevlar, this will stop most projectile weapons, but is also proff against knives and even helps to spread out the blow from a club or other type of weapon. The very rich enjoy a sort of sily affair that is light and strong. There is also a reactive clothing that changes color dpending on the setting. So you can turn your clothes to match the shade of your hair or eyes. Meslef, I wear denim pants when i can find them, and I always wear the same type of shoes (from the early 1980's). When I am allowed out to mix with the populace I tend to wear said denim pants and a white cotton blousy shirt.
8) Dental care: For those that can afford it, dental care is very simple. A type of polymer is applied to the teeth and cavities pretty much don't happen. For those that cannot, it is very similar to tooth care of today. there are no more ectreme dental surgeries however. thos that have dental care get a cast made of whatever tooth is in question and a new tooth is placed into the socket.
9) Land mass shifting: There have not been any major shifts in land masses. continental drift keeps going at the usual pace, so there is almost no difference. California has not fallen into the ocean, so you can discount investing in desert land to make a buck.
10) Yes, there is a cure for some types of cancer, as well as alzheimers, and several other plagues of this era. As happy as that may sound, there are dieases there that make cancer look like a 24 hour flu. AS humankind advances and creates new and wonderous treatments for whatever ails us, nature keeps ahead of us by breating more brutal and lethal attacks.
What is the cure? I do not know, so i won't even pretend to say that I cannot tell you. If I had the facts, I'd give them now. Alas, I only know that most types of common cancer are not a problem.
11) Do women still use tampons? More or less. There is an elixer called SP-Period that allows a woman to take it and her mentral cycles only lst a few hours. For most, however, the due course of the human body is intact. I have it on decent authority that those that do drink the SP have poor side effects. Ther is birth control and it has improved quite a bit. A simple gun-shot (from a medical gun...do you have those here and now?) can give a woman 100% protection against pregnancy for a year to a decade. Fo rmen, there is a laser vasectomy of sorts. It is the same as the cut-open-and-knot the testes but it is done using a pin-laser (which is blue) and does not hurt from what I'm told. this is permanent and is usually a requirement of service in the kilitary.
12) Movies: Entertainment is controlled by the government and is basically a form of propaganda. There is still the Black Market that peddles stories of bygone eras. Anything ever produced is somewhat available if you kow where to go and are willling to pay the price for a V3 cube. I am fond of things from the 1960's and the resurgence of happiness in the early 2100's that was evident. The V3 is an interesting mode however. Unlike Television here, it is three-dimensional and projects onto a small stage rather than a flat surface. There aer also interactive and holographic (for lack of a better now-term) movies and scenarios tha tone may act within, thus putting yourself into the role of the protagonist.

To titorite
Titorite;
greetings! I understand from your namesake that you are a fan of John Titor. I have made my views on that very clear, so we shallleave it at that.
So you believe that I am ahoax, but you do not percieve that as germaine to our discussion. Fair enough, at least you are civil and willing to ask.
I shall answer things in turn, as best as I can; with the common disclaimers as I put forth earlier.
1) What parts of the world hav light in 2012: do you mean electric, thermal, or electromagnetic light? Or do you mean sunlight? ther shall be light upon the Earth as long as the Sun lives. As I understand it, Terra has manymillions of years left, so we're all safe for now.
2) How long did it take for the air to clear?: i don't know who's piffle disguised as profundity you are following, but the air doesn't clear...it actually gets worse! When the focus turns to results instead of appeasing everyone, corporations and others are set free to acheive their goals at pretty much any cost to the environment or safety that thwey see fit. In the late 2200's the air becomes less volatile, but it i sstill very poluted and corupt. I've made a few references to the brown rain; tha is caused by so much muck in the atmosphere. On the plus side, there is no global warming (as I've said) becaus ethe pollution blots it out.
3) the coastline in the 2300's: pretty much exactly what you see now.
4) why was I recruited from the past: I was recruited because I happened to fall in with Dewar and just happened to be in the right time at the wrongh place. I am just smart enough and creative enough that I can be an effective operative; but not so tuned-in that i pose myself a problem or such that I pose a porblem to any mission. Just as in any careeer, or any quick decision making...overthought will kill you just as quick as undercaution. I have a resilient vod, can handle illogic as a matter of course, and have no great desire to undertsand the quite tangled and involved inner workings of how things work. Those that do, by the way, usually end up Lunar. I likewse have no family ties, no grea tcontributions to acheive later in my life, and I would not hav ebeen missed if I simply fell off the face of the earth. My personality is also such that I do not rely upon fictious ideals set forth by popular sciences of dogmas and I tend to adapt to whatever situation arises. I am also quite adept at bearing th eposture of an idiot. that is very important fo rwhat I actually do. The main reason i was ultimately recruited is that i could put 2 and 2 together and come up with five...somehow accounting for very large values of 2.
5) Hillary Clinton: I have no direct knowledge and from when I am i have no actual means to check history actual, history A, or any other version in the archives. All I can say is that what you think will happen will surprise you in the end.
6 & 7) Fraternal orders and the Guardians: As far as I know (and I have mentioned this before) the Fraternal orders are a non-issue. I have never heard of hte guardians, per se, but have heard mention of them here and from private messages from the plethora of others that have contacted me. As an aside I tend to converse with them, but throw them idiotic lines such as "I won the lottery" to weed out those wanting me to join their club, so to speak. I will simply state that there are no outside influences to be reckoned with, period.
8) Can I be helped? Well I figure that most here would suggest their psychiatrist! My general missions are very simple and linear. i leave the heavy stuff to those that do not care at all. I do care, but I try not to let that get in the way. I ahve dione what I came here to do already and am just awaiting extraction. I was fortunate enough that things just happened to fall to my favor whilst I was wasting my nanos. I am simply spending my time here now doing manual stuff for my boarder friend and enjoying the pleasures of life in this era.
9) Am I going to warn you before I go?: i wish I could. when I get pulled back I'll know about i just about a minute or so before it happens. I'll have no warning of this and it will simply happen. I'll feel a strong pull over my left shoulder and my vision will grow black and blurry. I'll more than likely vomit as the nausea overtakes me and ten I'll feel the sensation of falling backwards as gravity dances over each and every molecule in my body. then I'll feel my body explode in each and every direction as my soul is imprisoned into a shell of my mind that lasts either no time or forever, depending on your point of view. there I shall have only my own life to face with each action laid bare....I'll be imploded together strapped into that demkned infernal wretching and vomiting all the while. I have no advance warning as the energy to send amessage is more costly than reversing the machines to pull me back.
10) got any pictures?: The $1,000 dollar question apparently. No I did not bother to film the future or make certain I packed proof along with a clean pair of Chuckies. There are no mass restricitons, as shooting merely takes a particle of the universe and moves it, but there is avolume restriction. I came in with what I needed to blend in and what I needed to survive here, nothing more. Besides, any proof i would document is firstly not compatible with the technology here...I hate to disappoint but we use 3V stills in the 23rd and no matter how much you want it to be so, I can't simply plug into one of htese USB ports...it isn't compatible. We use information streams stored onto carbon 17 moles (and now the chemists will have a field day!) to store information. You can't just pop that into a DVD-Rom drive and have it. I could get a picture taken of my beacon here, or of meself, but you'd oly call it a watch and an ugly guy with a large ego. I shall spew forth agin my comment that anyone that comes to you with proof in hand is only out to show you a fabrication.
You rcomments:
Rife Machine: Interswting but not my area. as so many have pointed out my area is actually boring to everyone here. I raise funds in the form of leverage, products, and power. Your ideals of money are skewed. There is no power in money, there is only money in money. There are devices that do such things, but I cannot tell yo uanything about how they operate, only that htey hum at differing pitches when they are being used.
Cold fusion and light water: Fusion after a fashion exists a bit, but is still not mastered. Think of it as a test of the original hydrogen bomb several of your decades ago, when some small anmount of scientists thought that it might induce a chain reaction that would ignite ALL hydrogen on the planet. It's there, but we dont' know enbough about ot use it all over. Water is found to be the basis of everything. It makes sense considering that human blood is merely an adaptation of sea-water. Wate ris used as a medium for mnay kinds of chemical and energenical transfers. In that sense, you are correct.
Coil guns: I am not an expert on such primitve things, but as I understand it, a coil gun is simply induced magnetics in a pulse. These wer developed and later improved upon. The standard sidearm now is a pulse gun, which is similar, but shoots a projectile fired by an energy charged magnetic pulse. these range from archiac needlers, to disc guns, to ones that shoot all sorts of deadly things. Right now, the en vogue weapons seem to shoot a soert of recursive light pellet. Picture a laser that is concentrated not only into parallel lines, but also that curve around themselves, forming a sort of pellet. the best part is tha tthey can be recharged, slowly, using standard sunlight. these are fewe and far between though. With the pokymesh uniforms most of the bad-guys wear, I tend to use fire whenever I can. I also enjoy 21st century podwer-actuated hand guns. they may not penetrate, but at 1200 feet per second plus, they sure do hurt. I don't want to talk aboiut hte things I've done, as I am ashamed of some of them, but let me just say that if you bludgeon your foe down to the ground using primitve firearms, pour a flammable substance on them, and then hit them with a flash cap, it doesn't mater if their clothing can stop a bullet or a pellt, they burn!
On your description (I'm attempting humor): Glad to nkow your particulars, but I'm into women! You IQs impressive for this era, and it is evident in your prose. You rspiritual sense will become hte normal soon enough,and you'll all get to enjoy at least a bit of freedom before it all fugazies. However, God is ot concerned with your view of HIm (or Her), merely that you live your life the best that you can...based not upon any Dogma, but only what is universally true and correct. God (or Gaia, of Buhdda, or anyone else for that matter) gave us everything we need to learn the truth and make the right decisions. You ar emore htan likely on the right path, and those that call you names are not.
I would incline to disagree that we are an extension of God's attempt to understand itself (rather than to put a gender here) more that we are a shadow of the divine seeking the light.
Ans as far as you owning a feline, is that really true? Imagine that you are an EBE coming here to find the dominant species. Whom is on control, that which does the bathroom business in a box and has a human empty it, and then have that same human feed them, or the human?

When the focus turns to results instead of appeasing everyone, corporations and others are set free to acheive their goals at pretty much any cost to the environment or safety that thwey see fit. In the late 2200's the air becomes less volatile, but it i sstill very poluted and corupt. I've made a few references to the brown rain; tha is caused by so much muck in the atmosphere. On the plus side, there is no global warming (as I've said) becaus ethe pollution blots it out.
3) the coastline in the 2300's: pretty much exactly what you see now.
4) why was I recruited from the past: I was recruited because I happened to fall in with Dewar and just happened to be in the right time at the wrongh place. I am just smart enough and creative enough that I can be an effective operative; but not so tuned-in that i pose myself a problem or such that I pose a porblem to any mission. Just as in any careeer, or any quick decision making...overthought will kill you just as quick as undercaution. I have a resilient vod, can handle illogic as a matter of course, and have no great desire to undertsand the quite tangled and involved inner workings of how things work. Those that do, by the way, usually end up Lunar. I likewse have no family ties, no grea tcontributions to acheive later in my life, and I would not hav ebeen missed if I simply fell off the face of the earth. My personality is also such that I do not rely upon fictious ideals set forth by popular sciences of dogmas and I tend to adapt to whatever situation arises. I am also quite adept at bearing th eposture of an idiot. that is very important fo rwhat I actually do. The main reason i was ultimately recruited is that i could put 2 and 2 together and come up with five...somehow accounting for very large values of 2.
5) Hillary Clinton: I have no direct knowledge and from when I am i have no actual means to check history actual, history A, or any other version in the archives. All I can say is that what you think will happen will surprise you in the end.
6 & 7) Fraternal orders and the Guardians: As far as I know (and I have mentioned this before) the Fraternal orders are a non-issue. I have never heard of hte guardians, per se, but have heard mention of them here and from private messages from the plethora of others that have contacted me. As an aside I tend to converse with them, but throw them idiotic lines such as "I won the lottery" to weed out those wanting me to join their club, so to speak. I will simply state that there are no outside influences to be reckoned with, period.
8) Can I be helped? Well I figure that most here would suggest their psychiatrist! My general missions are very simple and linear. i leave the heavy stuff to those that do not care at all. I do care, but I try not to let that get in the way. I ahve dione what I came here to do already and am just awaiting extraction. I was fortunate enough that things just happened to fall to my favor whilst I was wasting my nanos. I am simply spending my time here now doing manual stuff for my boarder friend and enjoying the pleasures of life in this era.
9) Am I going to warn you before I go?: i wish I could. when I get pulled back I'll know about i just about a minute or so before it happens. I'll have no warning of this and it will simply happen. I'll feel a strong pull over my left shoulder and my vision will grow black and blurry. I'll more than likely vomit as the nausea overtakes me and ten I'll feel the sensation of falling backwards as gravity dances over each and every molecule in my body. then I'll feel my body explode in each and every direction as my soul is imprisoned into a shell of my mind that lasts either no time or forever, depending on your point of view. there I shall have only my own life to face with each action laid bare....I'll be imploded together strapped into that demkned infernal wretching and vomiting all the while. I have no advance warning as the energy to send amessage is more costly than reversing the machines to pull me back.
10) got any pictures?: The $1,000 dollar question apparently. No I did not bother to film the future or make certain I packed proof along with a clean pair of Chuckies. There are no mass restricitons, as shooting merely takes a particle of the universe and moves it, but there is avolume restriction. I came in with what I needed to blend in and what I needed to survive here, nothing more. Besides, any proof i would document is firstly not compatible with the technology here...I hate to disappoint but we use 3V stills in the 23rd and no matter how much you want it to be so, I can't simply plug into one of htese USB ports...it isn't compatible. We use information streams stored onto carbon 17 moles (and now the chemists will have a field day!) to store information. You can't just pop that into a DVD-Rom drive and have it. I could get a picture taken of my beacon here, or of meself, but you'd oly call it a watch and an ugly guy with a large ego. I shall spew forth agin my comment that anyone that comes to you with proof in hand is only out to show you a fabrication.
You rcomments:
Rife Machine: Interswting but not my area. as so many have pointed out my area is actually boring to everyone here. I raise funds in the form of leverage, products, and power. Your ideals of money are skewed. There is no power in money, there is only money in money. There are devices that do such things, but I cannot tell yo uanything about how they operate, only that htey hum at differing pitches when they are being used.
Cold fusion and light water: Fusion after a fashion exists a bit, but is still not mastered. Think of it as a test of the original hydrogen bomb several of your decades ago, when some small anmount of scientists thought that it might induce a chain reaction that would ignite ALL hydrogen on the planet. It's there, but we dont' know enbough about ot use it all over. Water is found to be the basis of everything. It makes sense considering that human blood is merely an adaptation of sea-water. Wate ris used as a medium for mnay kinds of chemical and energenical transfers. In that sense, you are correct.
Coil guns: I am not an expert on such primitve things, but as I understand it, a coil gun is simply induced magnetics in a pulse. These wer developed and later improved upon. The standard sidearm now is a pulse gun, which is similar, but shoots a projectile fired by an energy charged magnetic pulse. these range from archiac needlers, to disc guns, to ones that shoot all sorts of deadly things. Right now, the en vogue weapons seem to shoot a soert of recursive light pellet. Picture a laser that is concentrated not only into parallel lines, but also that curve around themselves, forming a sort of pellet. the best part is tha tthey can be recharged, slowly, using standard sunlight. these are fewe and far between though. With the pokymesh uniforms most of the bad-guys wear, I tend to use fire whenever I can. I also enjoy 21st century podwer-actuated hand guns. they may not penetrate, but at 1200 feet per second plus, they sure do hurt. I don't want to talk aboiut hte things I've done, as I am ashamed of some of them, but let me just say that if you bludgeon your foe down to the ground using primitve firearms, pour a flammable substance on them, and then hit them with a flash cap, it doesn't mater if their clothing can stop a bullet or a pellt, they burn!
On your description (I'm attempting humor): Glad to nkow your particulars, but I'm into women! You IQs impressive for this era, and it is evident in your prose. You rspiritual sense will become hte normal soon enough,and you'll all get to enjoy at least a bit of freedom before it all fugazies. However, God is ot concerned with your view of HIm (or Her), merely that you live your life the best that you can...based not upon any Dogma, but only what is universally true and correct. God (or Gaia, of Buhdda, or anyone else for that matter) gave us everything we need to learn the truth and make the right decisions. You ar emore htan likely on the right path, and those that call you names are not.
I would incline to disagree that we are an extension of God's attempt to understand itself (rather than to put a gender here) more that we are a shadow of the divine seeking the light.
Ans as far as you owning a feline, is that really true? Imagine that you are an EBE coming here to find the dominant species. Whom is on control, that which does the bathroom business in a box and has a human empty it, and then have that same human feed them, or the human?

How old am I? Didn't you ask me that already?
I guess that I am roughly 30 or so years old now, it gets comfusing.
Somehow I got a message that you estimate 54, which I'd like to know about, but I am roughly 30 or so years old, I figure.
I was about 20 when I was recruited, and I have been doing htis for what I think to be about a decade ofmy own liner time.
However, without a linear clander to markoff, and spending a month or two in a place and then coming back a few days after I left when I was, it gets difficult to judge.
Likewise, YAZ is not in a time stream per se, so time passes there without recourse of guage.
This also hints at my prediliction for imbibing spirits. In my bunk did I sleep an huor or 30? If I'm here for three months but go back only a few hours after I left did I spend months here or only hours? If I spent last June (*your time) in 2004 and then the next month I am in 2007, is that 3 years or a single month?
I estimate a little over 3,000 days spent in liner time in the field, training, healing, trying to get into Nina's bed..etc. So roughly 10 years, which would make me arond 30 or 31, more or less.

Re: To jmpet
Believe it or not - Shant is either an Aussie/UK short form slang for "Shall not" (Wheres a eyeroll emote when you need one!) Example in Usage: You shant drink and post here Darwin!
I've been lurking in these threads on this forum for a long while (about 1 year,) and I finally decided tonight I wanted to sign up - so as to add myown .02 cents on this thread. I'm with Jmpett - this guys story is so full of holes it doesn't even dignify a proper post mortem dissection.
There again - most of the other threads I've seen on here thus far have been real LOL jobs too.

Re: To Pamela
Hi.
This story gets really interesting. I want to ask you some more questions.
How are cities big in the future? Does "Megacities" exist, like we saw in the movie "Judge Dredd" that are surounded by big walls? Are there still New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, London, Paris?
What about nature? Is it totally destroyed by nuclear fallout or there are still some "heavens"?
Did you travel to your future? To years 2400, 2500, 2600, 3000, 4000 to learn something more?
Thanks.

Re: Answer to Scully
Thank you Dar, for answering my questions so thoroughly, its really appreciated. For those that disbelieve.....I wonder, what the heck is this board for? If you totally disbelieve absolutely everyone, anything, always will..and nothing could change your mind....why be on this board at all?
If you feel there may be some credence or just want someone to give you a good story...Dar is as good as Titor....if not better. So suck it in and make the most of the "real thing" or enjoy a good story. Either way...quit whipping the ass of someone who is giving information....something that very few other posters have done (I may be new but I have read most of the posts going back for avery long time).
Time travel is a possibility...you all know this or you wouldnt be on this site. Why do you all get your knickers in such a knot if someone actually answers you? And why do you keep asking such nerdy things all the time...EMC2 = who gives a damn? If "I" travelled back in time and people asked me that stuff.....I wouldnt know and wouldnt really care to put it into words. Too deep and dont give a crap. The scientists of new age discoveries dont even bother with the basics after the fact...ie after a project has been made, its a given....human emotions take precendent thereafter....not equations because thats how life is.
You dont tell a freaking decent poster to shove off when you've invited them in. Believe or disbelieving makes no difference. Just listen and see how it goes....K-Pax, timeslip or Carlissan....what are you all really waiting for? Someone to stop you guys discussing quantam mechanics for a while? Looks like you have your man...so shut up, listen and twiddle your thumbs until you come up with another question for him, nay the comment, of...go away, you is scarwing me.

>You dont tell a freaking decent poster to shove off when you've invited them in. Believe or disbelieving makes no difference.<
I agree, and that is why this clown's gotta go- he is not a decent poster.
I mean, I give him points for ignoring everything he can't answer but where does that leave us? His last post- which is a rehash of something Titorite wrote a week ago- is all he can do now.
So let's see... he is a time traveller who can't describe the time machine, has no pictures or proof, can't draw any pictures and refuses to go into any detail about anything. And anytime you pose a direct question, you get poetry as an answer.
It's time for you to go away now.

Re: To Pamela
Like Mix.. and knowledge above (reason I've edited this) I have a couple of questions to toss at Darwin myself. Of course, I'm rather skeptical about this whole concept of time travel thing. I mean -- if he's really from the future, then Darwin should be able to give us a basic answer to each of the questions below:
1. In history journals from the future, what turns up being the legacy of our current President George Walker Bush. Will history view his decision to invade Iraq, and unseat Saddam Hussein as being the only option we had, as favorable - or not?
2. What form of Government emerges and takes hold in that region of the middle east - once the power vacuum we created by deposing Hussein - and the resulting sectarian insurgency there ends?

"Dar is as good as Titor....if not better."
i laughed quite a bit on that statement. /ttiforum/images/graemlins/smile.gif
darwin is very funny, and very freindly, but i wouldnt bet a dollar that he is a real time traveler.
"So suck it in and make the most of the "real thing" or enjoy a good story."
why is it that you believe he is real? what convinced you?
"And why do you keep asking such nerdy things all the time...EMC2 = who gives a damn?"
most of us here give a damm because we are trying to figure out how to time travel. and by the way, to some, YOU are considered a nerd. how does that feel? to some, you are also considered gullible and naive, but thats neither here nor there...
"Too deep and dont give a crap."
from this statement, i would deduct that you are more into the fantasy aspect of time travel. when you filter out the trolls and the once a week titor wannabes, this is a forum for scientific ideas, discussion of ideas, and an attempt to progress and commercialize time travel research. of course we deal with time travel claims too, but this right here is not what it was created for. it was created for time travelers with authentic claims, not star trek junkies. (nothing against star trek of course. /ttiforum/images/graemlins/smile.gif )
"You dont tell a freaking decent poster to shove off when you've invited them in."
i didnt know jmpet invited darwin in! :O
seriously though, noone invited him, he just wanted to see how far he could get, and how much attention he could get. its really getting to be a dime a dozen deal...
"what are you all really waiting for? Someone to stop you guys discussing quantam mechanics for a while? Looks like you have your man...so shut up, listen and twiddle your thumbs until you come up with another question for him, nay the comment, of...go away, you is scarwing me."
and i would comment on this one, but i never learned to speak troll... was that a good one jmpet? :D
seriously though, you are taking the tone of a troll. jmpet and others have been on this site for long enough to know that darwin isnt saying anything new. its the same old routine. i suggest you quit being so naive to folks that are nice to you. nice doesent make the world go 'round. and you may want to know that you'll get nothing but a headache flaming here.
and ya know, maybe if you let jmpet work his magic instead of interrupting him, darwin may have already admitted the truth. you just tampered with a scientific experiment. shame on you!! /ttiforum/images/graemlins/yum.gif
