Probably the greatest headline the NY Times has ever ran

Although Da Vinci's inventions were advanced for their time, I think we can safely assume that a guy from the future wouldn't do things like study alchemy.

That way madness lies.

--- Quote from: 0bsessions on 30 May 2008, 08:19 ---Time travel is essentially proven implausible by the fact no one has ever popped up and proven it exists by now. In the whole of future human existence, if time travel were invented, you can be sure that some dumb twat would find a way to sneak his way back and blow the whistle.

--- End quote ---

Stephan Hawking would disagree with you. he says that while time travel is theoretically impossible as far as we know (not to mention the fact that we've seen no visiters from the future, obviously), it could be possible if it required some ridiculous rift or warp in space or some ungodly energy source that, at this point, hasn't existed yet. so if that thing came into existence at some point and made time travel possible then you would only be able to travel within the lifespan of that thing, whatever it may be.

for example, they are turning on some kind of blackhole generater in September and some speculate that it could destroy us all or even have visitors from the future showing up. this is all highly unlikely but if Stephan Hawking says so, it must have at least some merit.

That's not how videogames work.

Am I the only person who is slightly uneasy with the wording of this thread's title? I feel like it ought to be "run" not "ran"
