saturdaygig Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 Any of you are welcome to borrow my time machine as long as you promise to bring it back yesterday. So anyone who hasn't brought it back already is clearly not reliable enough to lend it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonLax Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 every time you look at the sky at night youre seeing the past doesnt make your eyes a time machine though Every time you look at anything you are looking at the past. There is no such thing as the "present", it's indefinable. If you assign any kind of value to it, no matter how small, that value can be divided into a past and a future. In reality there is only the past (which we live in through our slow senses) or the future. If you could manipulate how fast the past reaches your senses (via manipulation of gravity perhaps?) you could manipulate how far back you can see/hear into the past. That would be a type of time travel I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
