“do you believe in time travel?”
Ok, Donnie Darko references aside, these guys believe.
Morlocks aside, how would YOU like to visit, even live hundreds of years in the future? There may be a way, and that is the purpose of The Time Travel Fund(tm).
Q: How does this work?
A: Current scientific theory states that Time Travel may be possible, however the technology is a long way off, perhaps hundreds of years in the future. Now, assume it does become possible in say, 500 years. As with any technology, Time Travel will get less expensive as time goes on. Just as the price of a VCR has dropped to less than $70 from the several hundred dollars it cost just ten years ago, Time Travel, once it becomes feasible, will initially be very expensive yet it will become more and more economical as time goes by.Q: How does this help me?
A: The concept is that one day, it may be possible for people living far in the future to retrieve you from your current frame of reference (their past - your present) and bring you into the future (their present - your future.)Q: Why would they want to?
A: That is the purpose of the fund. The simple answer is, we pay them to bring you into the future.
So who wants to buy me a ticket to the future?

I don’t think time travel is possible. If it were someone would already have gone back in time to stop Bill Gates from going anywhere near a computer.

ha ha ha! But just imagine if it was, how much more terrible things have they saved us from? I don’t even want to contemplate a world with an OS worse than windows…

Considering that time travel is EVER possible then it obviously exists anytime that can be imagined; of course in our time as well. And the paying to be moved to another time thing is ridiculous, what gives people the idea that our currency would have any sort of relevance in the future. Furthermore the act of time travel is monitored carefully and fools such as yourself would never be allowed to walk time.
