As soon as you arrive at the past, you’re making a choice and there’ll be a split. Our universe will not be affected by what you do in your visit to the past.” Oooh! I saw that episode of Star Trek The Next Generation. Warf keeps changing uniforms and winds up married to Deanna Troy. It was one of my favorites.

My Dad told me the same thing when I was a kid (I think I was wishing for Christmas to come sooner). I didn't believe him then. I know now, he was correct! Smart man.

all time stops at that pointTHAT would be interesting! Well, maybe not since we wouldn't have time to even think about whether it is interesting or not. I guess we would effectively be "dead" since all body processes would cease.

I'm sure it's already been said; but I can say it if I want to.
IF time travel were possible, we would have already met those people from that time of invention who traveled back to our time or earlier.

Perhaps we have and they simply have not identified themselves.

Yes, but this would be an ever-increasing event--one would think. How could everyone continue to keep the secret?

your right, but get back to me in a few years when the United States is part of the "one world" of all open borders...

You're welcome! Have fun watching!

Or perhaps our time is considered too dangerous, being so near the nuclear war, whose date has been narrowed to 1990 to 2025, but the exact date remains unclear.

As soon as the first time traveler comes back and tells me how build it, I can get the dang thing invented already.
I am going to start it tomorrow and have it finished by yesterday. Wow, that was easy.

To: MeanWestTexan
Yes, but only in another universe.
You travel back to an ALTERNATE version of here.
You change one time stream, settle the matter, but do nothing for us here.
Basically, exit ramp only, no on-ramp.
So... no brokeback time travelers??

precisely my point. A time traveler needs to predict where we were, or will be, spacially in order to arrive on the same planet and not empty space at the terminus of their travel.
