Thanks for the ping.

There was an interesting movie I saw on TV several years ago about time travel, you may be interested in it.


Grand Tour-Disaster in Time!

Ben Wilson (Jeff Daniels) is a small-town widower haunted by his wife’s accidental death. When a group of odd travelers check into his country inn, Ben discovers they’re tourists from the future who visit the past to enjoy catastrophic disasters — and Ben’s town is next on this grand tour of devastation. Will anyone believe his bizarre tale? And can he go back to yesterday to save himself — and all that he loves — from the horrors of tomorrow?

:’) There was a fake story about time travel (it was a real story, but it was about some joker who claimed that time travel will be discovered in the future and we’ve already been given clues by time travel to prepare us for the eventual transformation of our society) in one of the new agey mags back in the 1980s sometime, probably during the first Bush’ administration (because the manager of the bookstore where I read this the story had gone to the same university as VP Quayle, anyway...). One of the amusing ideas was that the Sermon on the Mount was heavily attended, but almost everyone there was a tourist from the future. :’)
