2006 was NOT a glorius year.
Maybe not for you, but 2006 was the year I raced my polka-dotted green and purple gazelle at the annual Race Your Gazelle Festival, and I came in at a cool 22nd place, so nyeah!:stick_out_tongue:

Just so you guys know, I understood Snowth's signature, I was just kind of joking because I'm not sure how to contribute to this thread otherwise.

*high five* Join the club!

So...I was once transported to the future year of 3002 (or was it 3004? I was so concerned about it being 3000 and something I forget the specifics...) Took me ages to get home. Michael Jackson was the president of the world...everything but his heart and his left nostril were robot.

...and today's question is:


WARNING: A VERY RETARDED QUESTION


Q. How come the human race hasn't invented a time traveling machine? :smile:crazy: ).


A. (your answer here).
I suppose everybody is just so darn busy that nobody has the time to spare for this endeavour.:wink: :big_grin:

Ahem.

*Adjusts horn-rimmed glasses and stands behind podium, with flow chart and pointing stick at the ready. Speaking in the driest of all possible voices...*

In actuality, the prospect of time travel as presented by science fiction is completely impossible. To suggest that time is made up of events that continually repeat themselves is to misunderstand the very nature of chronology. One cannot return to the past and revisit the happenings therein, because those happenings are finished and done with, a once-in-history event that cannot be duplicated. One could, however, make the argument that mankind is continually engaged in time travel, as we hurtle through the chronology of our lives at breakneck speed, endlessly moving from one moment to the next. In the last twenty-four hours, for example, we have travelled forward through time exactly one day. An interesting point, however, is that the actual speed we move through time often seems disproportionate. For example, this lecture started roughly ten minutes ago, whereas it feels more like three hours. Similarly, if you were engaged in viewing your favorite television program, half-an-hour may have seemed like scant seconds.

*Dry cough*

But returning to the original hypothesis, we may examine the inconsistency of...

Is it because if we discover time travel we would have to discover it at every point in time and because it hasn't happened yet it isn't going to?

On another note, D'Snowth reminds me of that old question as to whether barnacles actually live on barns? And does treacle come from trees?
