sounds insane i know. just read.

this is insane. but they can't find any info about this guy? thats creepy. plus, not anyone can get inside stock trading info. you have to have connections. im anxious to see what happens next.

oh wait, its April Fools Day

I told him to take it easy back hear. Now our time ship will be captured and I will be stuck in the backwars time. Great! Fucking great!

/me runs to hardware store to pick up some things

/e grabs blueprints, i'm right behind you!

Ok theoretically, if they where going to let him go in the future, he would just be able to come back and warn himself that he was going to get caught and none of this would ever happen. Therefore, they must keep him in custody and possibly kill him inorder to keep the <¿>temporal linearity. If not, our whole fabric of time will be ripped apart and our universe will be deystroyed, c'mon people you've seen the friggin movies! Time travel is impossible anyways. Oor he is just a huge liar working with some evil ass people that know insider secrets that got him a fake identity and will probably torture him and possibly his family very badly if he rats them out so he made up some stupid ass story.

he sold his soul to satan for information

Temporal paradox alert!

My question is, if he is from the future, why was he not from the future when he was in the future and came back and therefore would know the future already and would have known that he had gotten caught. And obviously he has to make it back anyways, or else wouldn't he cease to exist in the future?

I know the theory, that time travel actually fulfills events. It's just one of many theories. Maybe it's an incorrect one. Actually I know it's an incorrect one. A human being cannot create a device that can time travel. period.

Why would you say this? And even if there wasn't a way to do it with a machine, its technically already possible going into space and/or blackholes.

I thought blackholes were folds in space... Like, uh, something goes in a black hole and then comes out of a white hole somewhere way far away. or maybe i'm just remembering something i thought of myself a while ago. i dont' really know.

We're debating now huh? Moved to debate forum...

Space-Time


This concept can be summed up easily; space and time are connected. But what does this mean? For example, a day is 24 hours, but it is also 24,894 miles or the amount of distance the Earth rotates. The Universe is so immense that distance is measured in terms of light years. A light year is the distance that light travels in a year. Light moves at approximately 186,000 miles per second, which translates to roughly 6 trillion miles. So when your traveling in space, you can measure your journey in both distance and time travelled.


The relationship runs even deeper. When travelling in space, the faster you move, the slower time moves. The fastest thing in the Universe is light and the closer you move toward its speed, the slower time goes. For example, if identical twins were separated; Bob stays on Earth, and Ed experiences a space mission at the speed of light. If they are 20 when the mission starts, on Earth the time elapsed is 22 years. When the twins are reunited, Bob will be 42, however Ed will only be 30.

I didn't say time travel was impossible. I just said man will never make a device capable of time travel.

Read this fascinating link by my favorite site concerning such matters:

I agree its not very likely, but I think when dealing with anything scientific its usually not wise to put a limitation on somethings possibility.

Like stated above and in your article, it is already possible in a way, with any object that moves at a great enough speed for a long enough duraction.

Too much theory, not enough substance as of yet, so its hard to say what would happen or what someone actually even considers time travel.
