Clorrick
Hi Clorrick I just wanted to ask you three questions and I am a believer in the paranormal and other subjects as well I have spent six to seven years on these subjects so how are you doing in general? I am doing fine for now well here are my questions and thanks for answering all of them when you have some sparetime:

1. What kind of races exist in your timeline?

2. Will their be time machines and telportation in the near or further future?

3. What kind of clothing do people wear and what kind of languages do people speak in the near or further future?

thanks for your time and patience and listening I hope you have a good day I will talk with you later on well see ya later on thanks in advance!
 
Oooh! Oooh! Mr. Kotter!


I don't think one necessarily has to claim to be a TTer in order to answer these questions...so let me take a crack at them. They seem pretty easy:
1. What kind of races exist in your timeline?
All of the old favorites are still around: Indy 500, Daytona 500, even the Paris-Dakar Rally is still around, although ever since they built that bridge over the Straits of Gibralter it isn't the difficult endurance race that it once was. Now it is more of a "family weekend getaway".

And since you didn't specify kinds of races, I shouldn't assume you meant auto races only. The Kentucky Derby has continued thru the years. But by 3087 no one really remembers what a "derby" is, so it is now called the Kentucky Headgear. The Alaskan Iditarod is still a big hit, although there have been allegations of steroid use by the dog teams. So far all the dogs on the winning team last year have said nothing about these allegations... and the paparazzi continues to dog them! /ttiforum/images/graemlins/smile.gif The Whitbread around the world yacht race had to be canceled due to the onset of the new Ice Age... because of the advancement of the ice there is no longer any water passage south of Cape Agulhas in South Africa or Cape Horn at Tierra Del Fuego.

2. Will their be time machines and telportation in the near or further future?
Well, I would have to say in the very near future... because "now" would certainly be classified as close to the near future as you can get! /ttiforum/images/graemlins/yum.gif

3. What kind of clothing do people wear and what kind of languages do people speak in the near or further future?
Nuclear fallout from the big war caused radical mutations in the human genome. As a result, humans have de-evolved in 3087 and regained their natural all-over fur coat. Since it keeps folks plenty warm, clothes are no longer a big deal in society. Although you will find that some well-endowed men and women will still wear the occasional briefs and halter tops... but always in neutral colors, as you would imagine. Clashing with the color of your fur is a fashion faux-pas even in the future!

The only language left is English. That is all anyone speaks. It makes it easy when logging onto internet forums trying to impersonate a time traveler.

Clorrick,

Sorry that I haven't responded sooner. You're right - I do have questions for you.

But the real reason is, the world was ending in my time. I knew if I stayed at that time, I would die. So I traveled to this time.

I thought your world had accomplished time travel. Why would it die considering that:

a) with time travel your society would have a fairly good clue about how long you have before The End

b) with time travel your population can all relocate, over time, to earlier periods in time or even other planets anywhere in the universe – and take their RPG sounding weapons and technology with them

You stand in there, and wait for the machine to charge all the atoms you have, the time it takes for it to charge all your atoms in your body varies on how much atoms you have.

What do you mean by “charge all the atoms”? Aren’t atoms made from charged subatomic particles and are already maximally charged (assuming that they are not ionized)?

When you change the “charge” on all of the atoms in your body in one way - toss out or add electrons - how do your individual molecules in your body remain, well, “molecules”?

If you change the charge on the atoms in one other specific way – toss out or add protons – what happens to the atoms in your body?
 
a. We wouldn't want to end up in the middle of "doom" when we travel into the future, now do we?

b. Traveling through earlier time periods, yes, but, we have a large population, we cannot fit it in a time period with other populations taking place.


About "Atom Charging"

Its much too complicated and won't be discovered in your time period, also, wouldn't be possible.

Lets just say you "charge" the atoms by sending commands to it using the machine. HINT: programming.
 
Clorrick,

I originally asked you the following:

What do you mean by “charge all the atoms”? Aren’t atoms made from charged subatomic particles and are already maximally charged (assuming that they are not ionized)?

When you change the “charge” on all of the atoms in your body in one way - toss out or add electrons - how do your individual molecules in your body remain, well, “molecules”?

You replied:

So, because you obviously don't know the correct answer, I'll answer for you:


Q. What do you mean by “charge all the atoms”? Aren’t atoms made from charged subatomic particles and are already maximally charged (assuming that they are not ionized)?

A. Electrons and anti-protons carry exactly one unit of negative charge. Positrons and protons carry exactly one unit of positive charge. They are maximally charged. A neutron can, through beta decay, emit an electron and an antineutrino and become a proton.

Q. If you change the charge on the atoms in one other specific way – toss out or add protons – what happens to the atoms in your body?

A. This is called nuclear fusion. Kicking out or adding a proton (changing the charge on the nucleus) changes the element. i.e. add a proton to the nucleus of a hydrogen atom and you have helium. This is how stars and hydrogen bombs work.

You can also bombard the nucleus with high speed neutrons and split the nucleus into two or more smaller pieces. This also changes the original element into two or more "lighter" elements as well as changing the charge on the nucleus of the resultant lighter elements.

This is called nuclear fission. Nuclear reactors and atomic bombs work on the fission principle.

In both cases you die because you are no longer composed of the elements required to sustain living matter...not to mention that you're carcuss will be burried somewhere in a nuclear waste storage facility because you will glow in the dark for a while after death.

If you change the charge on the atoms by removing electrons, the molecules of your body "unzip" into individual ions. This is also called molecular disintegration. You die because your body falls apart.

In short, "charging" an atom requires that you add or remove protons or electrons. This changes the nature of the original element or molecule into something other than what your body was originally composed from. You die.

Hint: None of this is "complicated". It's something that you should have learned in general science in middle school (assuming that you have actually graduated from middle school). If you haven't, then it's a bit more understandable that you would not know how basic chemistry and nuclear physics works.
 
obviously i dont know the answer? well, i have just explained it to you plus, I gave you a hint.

"obviously" you didn't read that hint.
 
Yeah Darby- "obviously" you don't get it! You program your body's atoms to charge up and align with the orogone capacitor's flux capacitor- sheesh! You think Clorrick was talking to children here!
 
Clorrick,

obviously i dont know the answer? well, i have just explained it to you plus, I gave you a hint.

"obviously" you didn't read that hint.

Of course I read your hint. Now, where is it that you "explained" (answered) my specific questions?

I have this little suspicion here that you read Titor's Saga and decided to use the same plot device that he used - charging up "something".

So, tell me. When and where did you study E & M theory?
 
It is obvious Clorrick is not as prepared as John Titor. Of course, this also has to do with one's talent to weave a story, but it also indicates that some knowledge of physics would be indispensible if one were to claim he / she is a time traveller. So this is where Titor Saga gets exciting. He did manage to get his message across. He did not succumb.
 
You hit the nail right on the head with that one.

Titor's first post here was:

>>02 November 2000 01:00
I saw the posting requsting the basic systems for a gravity distortion system that will allow time travel. Here they are:
Magnetic housing units for dual microsignularities.
Electron injection manifold to alter mass and gravity of microsingularities.
Cooling and x-ray venting system
Gravity sensors (VGL system)
Main clocks (4 cesium units)
Main computer units (3)<<

And over the next several months he only expanded on this original information, which in and if itself seems to make sense. Titor's ability to preconcieve such a thing then present it as flatly as he did above is what sets him apart from all other time travelers. Sure there were questions he did not answer, but there were hundreds he did and over 99% of them all fit together into one coherent picture- a macrochosm of this first post.
 
he might be a physics professor who is interested in fantasy and politics. he seemed so sure of himself while writing as if he were a real TT, though. did he say his major is history? but still the thought of a TT surfing on the net is so strange. so it seems the internet wil not be relaced by some other thing in a long time. /ttiforum/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I don't think time travel is possible. even the idea of timeline, I think, is imaginary. is there anything concrete to prove that there might be different timelines?
 
Time travel is absolutely possible- as Titor said, "natural time travel does exist" and it does- the closer you are to the center of the galaxy, the faster you're spinning around the center. So if you're really close, one orbit is say 100,000 light years. The Earth is "2/3rds out there" and it takes us 250,000 light years to make one orbit.

So if you plotted a straight line from point A (here and now) to point B (the other side of the galaxy), you have a trajectory that is shorter that that of the Earth (the Earth moves in a circular orbit). By doing so, you would arrive at point B "before the Earth does"- this is literally time travel: the trip would take you 1,000 years to travel but you'd arrive 100,000 years later in Earth time- you would have jumped 99,000 years into the Earth's future... in theory.

This was the concept behing Titor's time machine but on a subatomic scale. Instead of "slingshotting around the center of the galaxy" like Star Trek, Titor used microsingularities held in place by magnets. When you turned the machine on, in effect, the universe flew past you, you did not move at all. The clocks made sure you had a precise measurement so you could land on terra firma. It all makes sense, except for the "it doesn't exist" part.

All time travelers are sure of themselves when they post on this site. They come up with some hair-brained idea and think they can pull a quick one on all of us. But they don't realize- when you post a time travel claim on this site, you're gonna get hit with dozens of specific questions and they all gotta make sense and if you don't answer them, the questions don't go away.

This is difficult because of the chaos theory: the more information a time traveler posts, the more information people have to debunk them with. Some people post as little as possible, but this does not prove their claim- it only shows their lack or originality and poorly constructed time traveler story. It's a balancing act.

I don't think the internet will change with time. Considering it's almost 50 years old, I see no reason to overhaul it. The internet itself is nothing more than thousands of servers with millions of users... changing this is impossible- it's a self-regulating international community. As such, a claim such as Zeshua's could theoretically happen, but then again you need a story and proof to go with it as well.

so you believe there are real TTs here? /ttiforum/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Is it as simple? You turn on the machine, and presto you are in a different time line in seconds, where even you can see yourself. with my limited pyhsics knowledge, Einstein's twin paradox makes sense but in that theory you do not travel into the future of a different timeline, but to a time when your great grand children live. and as far as I know one can't reverse the process. am I right? So Einstein's theory does not allow different time lines, does it?
 
I think time- in regard to time travel- works like two intersecting cones: one in the past, one in the future. In the middle- where both cones intersect at their widest point- is a grey area where you can't tell which is which. I think there is only one tangable universe but history has a way or writing and rewriting itself to keep continuity intact.

The driving mechanism behind this is entropy, which is the tendency of things to break down over time. How many Mickey Mantle rookie cards will be around in 1,000,000ad? None because of entropy. Then prove in 1,000,000ad that Mantle rookie cards ever existed- you can't. As Einstein said about Gandhi when he died "In the future it will be hard to imagine such a person ever truly existed". Look at Jesus and how little (any?) PROOF He ever existed.

Time travel in this regard is to plot a straight line through the center of both points (past and future) and continuity will write itself around this event to keep history consistent- although you will have the occasional OOPA which can never be fully explained- like a spark plug in a 50 million year old geode.

With this explanation, we do not need multiple worldline theory to explain things like time travel. There is no reason time travel is impossible- we only need to invent it. But if we went back in time to yesterday and killed our other self, universal history around this incredible event would cause so much chaos that it might be easier for the universe to simply form a black hole on Earth and suck in both yous to keep continuity intact across the universe.

Take Titor for example. I think at some point in time between 2000 and 2038 the story of John Titor will become no more than urban legend, then after that it will start becoming theory up until 2038 when it becomes a real possibility. The timeline is kept intact and we remain in one worldline, only the details get blurred over time- the impossible becomes theoretical then it becomes possible then likely then fact much later in time.
 
but you know 'time travel' as a concept originated long before John Titor. That said, if it is possible one day, it won't have anything to do with Titor. by the way, he has already been identified, thanks to Cipher's 'unique'
analysis.
