Who needs hard drugs when you have Coast to Coast AM with George Noory? Tonight's entertainment includes a clown talking about a time traveler named John Titor.
Have fun and comment.
This is old news. I heard that show next week.
I remember reading about this awhile ago.
A Brief Summary of the John Titor Phenomenon
THE TIME TRAVEL TALE OF JOHN TITOR
Although there is debate over the exact date it started, on November 02, 2000, a person calling themselves Timetravel_0, and later John Titor, started posting on a public forum that he was a time traveler from the year 2036.
One of the first things he did was post pictures of his time machine and its operations manual. As the weeks went by, more and more people began questioning him about why he was here, the physics of time travel and his thoughts about our time. He also posted on other forums including the now non-existent Art Bell site. In his posts John Titor entertained, angered, frightened and even belittled those who engaged him in conversation.
On March 21, 2001, John Titor told us he would be leaving our and returning to 2036. After that, he was never heard from again. Speculation and investigation about who John Titor was and why he was online continues to this day.
Although it may be easy to dismiss all this as science fiction, most people who read his posts agree that there is something very haunting about John Titor and what he said. In addition, and open to more debate, he also made a series of predictions and comments that eerily seem to be coming true.
Unfortunately, I never spoke directly to John Titor but there are many out there who have and continue to wonder about their experience. As you get deeper and deeper into the story, you will find his posts, links to other sites about him, downloads and speculative information attributed to him after he left. I have taken the posts and organized them by date and subject. My editorial work is copyrighted but the unedited posts and the people who experienced it are in the public domain can be found on other sites listed inside.
As you read, please try to keep two things in mind:
1. John appeared to answer nearly every question that was asked of him over the 4-month period he was online. Because of that, many people neglected to read the previous posts and asked similar or exact questions he had already answered. It may offer a glimpse of what a time traveler goes through when having the same conversation again and again.
2. These posts were written before 911, the Discovery accident and the second gulf war. Many people believe John may have known of these events and dropped clues without actually referring to them. It's also widely agreed that he made several predictions about future physics discoveries that have materialized as he stated.
I have included a guest book where you may leave your comments. I will endeavor to respond to any questions you have based on my work.
I hope you enjoy your journey with John Titor.

Where is the nuclear war and great second American civil war that Titor promised?
The nuclear war is supposed to take place in 2015 the great civil was to begin in 2008
I would need drugs to listen to this show, but y'all have fun...lol.
"the now non-existent Art Bell site"
What happened to Art Bell?
They do indeed.
Thanks. I have never heard of the guy.
"What are your memories of 2036?
I remember 2036 very clearly. It is difficult to describe 2036 in detail without spending a great deal of time explaining why things are so different.
In 2036, I live in central Florida with my family and I'm currently stationed at an Army base in Tampa. A world war in 2015 killed nearly three billion people. The people that survived grew closer together. Life is centered on the family and then the community. I cannot imagine living even a few hundred miles away from my parents.
There is no large industrial complex creating masses of useless food and recreational items. Food and livestock is grown and sold locally. People spend much more time reading and talking together face to face. Religion is taken seriously and everyone can multiply and divide in their heads."

I'd like to get a list of John Titor's fans --- I have bridges and land to sell and they sound like really great potential buyers. ;)
I thought the civil war started in 2004?
I never heard of him either. It is always fun to hear how Noory at least pretends that the crap he has on the show is real.
Art semi-retired and now only does Sat and Sunday. Currently on vacation or something.
Thanks for the info about Art Bell. I have never listened to his show, but while some of his stuff was far out, I do recall people bringing some things to my attention, which I did find interesting.
But this Titor guy is a hoax, if I ever heard one.
It doesnt activley start in 2004 but the country begins to become polarized or so it said...
You should not have missed the guy who claimed he was part of the Philadelphia Experiment. I think he claimed for some reason that he was transformed into a child
