John Titor was an alleged time traveler from the year 2036, who shared detailed information about his time machine, mission, and original timeline with forum users in the years 2000 and 2001.
A Brief History Of John Titor In 1998, late night paranormal talk show host Art Bell received two faxes from an individual claiming to have pertinent information on the nature of time travel.
In the first fax, the sender (at that time, unnamed) detailed the discovery of time travel (involving the particle accelerator at CERN) in the year 2034. He also claimed that a “brick wall” existed in the timeline, and that no traveler could breach the year 2564.
The second fax, while less detailed, promised photographic evidence, as well as scans of the traveler’s time machine operations manual.
On November 2, 2000, an individual using the forum username TimeTravel_0 posted at the Time Travel Institute (TTI), in a thread titled Time-travel Paradoxes!: “Wow! Paul is right on the money. I was just about to give up hope on anyone knowing who Tipler or Kerr was on this worldline.
By the way, #2 is the correct answer and the basics for time travel start at CERN in about a year and end in 2034 with the first “time machine” built by GE. Too bad we can’t post pictures or I’de show it to you.” On January 27, 2001, this same user appeared on Art Bell’s Post to Post BBS, creating a new thread titled I am from 2036:
“Greetings. I am a time traveler from the year 2036. I am on my way home after getting an IBM 5100 computer system from the year 1975.
My “time” machine is a stationary mass, temporal displacement unit manufactured by General Electric. The unit is powered by two, top-spin, dual-positive singularities that produce a standard, off-set Tipler sinusoid.
I will be happy to post pictures of the unit.” The individual posting as John Titor went on to answer questions, detail the function and design of his time machine, and provide alleged photographs of the time machine and its operations manual. On March 24, 2001 John Titor shared his final message. “I will be leaving this worldline shortly and this will be my final post,” he wrote. True to his word, he never posted again.
To this day, no one knows John Titor’s true identity. His true name, his appearance, his location — all of it remains a mystery. If he was an actual time traveler, as he claimed, that version of John Titor no longer exists on this worldline. If he was a hoax, an individual playing a character, that person has yet to officially come forward to reveal the truth with evidence.
Art Bell was host to looney toons that took their craft very seriously. Well thought out and interesting. I miss that show.
LOL! Good question...
This is much better, and spot on relevant:

Why would there be a “brick wall” if time travel is such a breeze? Obvious hoax by someone who could be just whacko enough to believe his or her own story.

Lol.
I hope you don’t take this seriously.
For a long time, the machine was unstable and would randomly send travelers back in time up to 200 million years or forward in time up to 200 million years. GE discovered the problem was the original machine had a base plate of prefabulated amulite, surmounted by a malleable logarithmic casing in such a way that the two main spurving bearings were in a direct line with the panametric fan. The latter consisted simply of six hydrocoptic marzlevanes, so fitted to the ambifacient lunar waneshaft that side fumbling was effectively prevented. The main winding was of the normal lotus-o-deltoid type placed in panendermic semi-boloid slots in the stator, every seventh conductor being connected by a nonreversible tremmie pipe to the differential girdlespring on the "up" end of the grammeters.
“John Titor was an alleged time traveler from the year 2036, who shared detailed information about his time machine, mission, and original timeline with forum users in the years 2000 and 2001.”
But no info to prove anything, such as what will happen in 2002 or 2020 for example.
Hmm.
Thanks. More to read.
Went to the web-site........saw a place to click for his predictions.
Not a peep about the Chinese Virus, Election madness, or anything we’re presently addressing.
We’ve had some pretty big few years not to mention them.
East of the Rockies....caller you’re on the air....
Well, I’m gonna go there and MAKE it happen!
Like the sign at the protest said...
What do we want — TIME TRAVEL
When do we want it — IRRELEVANT
.........Time travel (if it’s even possible) requires staggering amounts of energy due to the fact that the solar system is moving through space. The earth might return close to the same position relative to the sun as it was a year ago, but the solar system had also moved one year of travel in its orbit around the center of the galaxy—which has moved one year in its direction of travel through the universe. You need the energy to go back both in time _and in space_ to whatever exact wxyz coordinate your target was.
A Time Machine? Okay, who has the best Ivette Mimieux pic?
Looked at the picture and I’m doubting in 15 years GE will make a time machine that looks like 1980’s technology and fits inside a metal tackle box.
