time machines

[sandie]

ok. im board i admit it but thats why i love this OT forum. u can chat with people about ANYTHING!!!!!

anyway i always like to think life is full of conspiracy theorys. im a drama queen u see.
now i recon they have already invented a time machine but are covering up the fact.

apart from the movie type plots of going back in time to change history imagine all the industrys that would collapse if time machines became part of everyday life. we wouldnt need transport for a start.

whats do u think???
or is this such a stupid post i wont get any comments??? lol.

Not much to say about the post Sandie I just clicked it to have yet another perv over you if I am honest !blush!!love!!oops!!grin!








Having said that if a time machine exits I'd use to back to when you were working !wink!

Sandi,

>ok. im board

You are not board, that is a piece of wood.

What you are is bored.

I'm afraid the paradoxes involved in time travel make it impossible except possibly on a quantum, ie very very small, particle level. Not too well up on my physics or general relativity to go too much into it. Time, whatever that is, does proceed at different speeds depending on where you are as Einstein postulated, though it would be highly impractical to make any time-travelling use of that fact.
However if you are really bored I could come round with my camera and we could discuss it. !wink!

Well Sandie if you are bored I can think of things we could do !grin!

We already have time travel (technically)

"The greatest time traveler so far is (cosmonaut) Sergei Avdeyev, who, by virtue of being on space flights for 748 days, is one-fiftieth of a second younger than if he had stayed home. So that man has traveled one-fiftieth of a second into the future."

You could say that in relation to the rest of us who remained on earth, he had a different 'future'. After all thats what relativity is about. Isn't it?

I'd go back in time and see if Wagon wheel's really were bigger.

[the man, the legend]

They were. And Outer Spacers were so much better than Space Raiders
