    Are there items for going back as well as forward in time? Don’t forget to take a key chain….(See Monty comic).

    Ever notice time travelers never come back? Here’s why- Traveling foward in time has never been possible so those who go back stay there. Unfortunatly, those who do travel back in time arive at the point in space where their part of the planet was at that time. As the planet is in constant motion (at an incredible rate of speed), they always materialise in an inhospitable enviroment, usually the hard vacuum of outer space which is, of course, invariably fatal.

    Time is a human construct. Time just measures the vibrations of subatomic particals. To go back in time, all the particals in the universe would have to be reversed. One can travel forward in time because speed (appears to) slows down the particle vibrations of the moving body. And yes one would have to adjust to the planetary movement if one went back in time.

    My grandfather (an old Cavalryman) is laughing in his grave: the ‘stableboy’ who earned the base pay rate has to be replaced with a team of robotic engineers with 6 figure salaries!

    Upside down in housing, no pay raises in sight, Walmart taking over the nation, helping China, not the USA, schools without enough books and on and on and here’s the military, spending millions or billions on robotic horses. How far down the toilet are Americans going to allow this nation go??

    Don’t you people know anything? Time travel has already been explained. When Superman flies really fast around the earth clockwise, he goes forward in time. When he flies really fast around the earth counter-clockwise, he goes back in time.

    Maybe this can help explain it all… (or not.)

    Someone should tell the genius in Army R&D that the Jeep has already been invented.

    “Unfortunately, those who do travel back in time arrive at the point in space where their part of the planet was at that time. "

    Naw—thought about that a long time (sic) ago. When you travel in time you keep the same momentum, though it’s -m instead of +m because you’re going back. So your -momentum carries you along with the earth, the universe, whatever to the point where you used to be.Saw Time After Time last night. Stupid ending. And why didn’t Meyers just explain that time is like a spiral, like a thread on a screw; you can’t go back just a few minutes or a few hours, you can only go in increments of 30 years. And why did Wells build a time machine with that return key on the outside?
