What are your thoughts?  Been a few years since I read through his posts.  Wonder how accurate it is at this point?

http://www.anomalies.net/category/exclusives/john-titor/

Some of the young whippersnappers probably have no idea what I'm talking about.  

I don't buy it, but the guy definitely had some very good insight.  

Probably time for another read through his posts.

Interesting stuff.  The concepts of how the world works were an interesting read.

Of course, there is the considerable issue that plenty of time travel theories would suggest that Titor could have easily been proven correct in HIS timeline, not ours, and both could be valid.

I remember the photo's of the "device" about the size of a tool box.  It was in the back of a corvette IIRC.



What's great about the story is that Titor states that this is a different timeline from the one he left so the events could be off by date, never happen, or happen as predicted.  It was brilliant because there was always a way out.




Shotgun Militia

John Titor was a first generation time traveler. To summarize his timeline and dates were messed up and his brain got somewhat fried during the whole process. The stuff he says though does come from a memory bank though..... Did I mention for yall to stock up on 7.62x39,7.62x51, 5.56, 223 and all other non hollow point rounds that are "armor piercing"? Load up on high cap mags also.

The man will come for it. Don't give it to him he's not polite. Your really gonna need it someday.

If I recall, they didn't all carry shotguns, but they had several guys with them to breach, since much of the conflict was urban door-kicking. It was a nickname.

I remember the story- I like how the time machine diagram from the manual was pretty well done.  There was also the photo of the laser pointer bending as it was shot out of the "time machine".

I'll have to go look it up again.  I can't remember if he explained how the Corvette wouldn't wind up out in space somewhere when he got to his destination time.

Once you've figured out the complexities of directional TIME displacement,  moving about in 3 dimensional space should be    a very simple matter..
.

.

Example: You  are flying in a cabin pressurized multi engine turbojet aircraft;  and have a choice of  several dozen  potential  airports  at which to land.... at each airport,  several different runways  used according to  traffic and wind direction.

Yes he did, and it was actually pretty genius...

Something about special, super sensitive gravity sensors that "lock" onto the specific gravity of your location, and when you begin to deviate from that gravity measurement during time travel, the sensors adjust somehow and keep you "anchored."

It was a pretty genius explanation.

Some fun reading...the author was quite sharp.

http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/ciencia/time_travel/johntitor03.htm

TimeTravel_0 : Altering gravity is not the hard part.
G° : LOL
Yareisa : go on...
TimeTravel_0 : Detecting gravity is the hard part.
TimeTravel_0 : I will tell you a little story.
TimeTravel_0 : When time travel was invented.
TimeTravel_0 : They built prototypes that would go back in time for a split second and then return.
TimeTravel_0 : They had sensors and cameras on them.
TimeTravel_0 : ...and they never returned.
G° : and forwards as well? how about a single jump forwards?
TimeTravel_0 : It was later discovered that the machines were ending up about 15 miles away and 3000 feet in the air.
TimeTravel_0 : feet
G° : doh!
TimeTravel_0 : The Earth was rotating away from them.
wyrmkin_37 : synchronization please
TimeTravel_0 : A system had to be invented that would "hold" the machine to the Earth.
TimeTravel_0 : Its called VGL.
TimeTravel_0 : Its based on very sensitive clocks and gravity sensors.
TimeTravel_0 : It stops the time distortion machine if radical changes in gravity are detected.
wyrmkin_37 : mechanical or electronic clocks
TimeTravel_0 : You wouldn't want to end up inside a mountain or under water...would you?
TimeTravel_0 : Cesium.
wyrmkin_37 : oh
G° : isn't all this classified? surely your supposed to keep it secret whilst in the past?
TimeTravel_0 : LOL!!!
TimeTravel_0 : I know you think I'm nuts...come on.
TimeTravel_0 : Who would believe me?
G° : just asking?
TimeTravel_0 : It my best defense.
wyrmkin_37 : isn't celsium a higher class of quartz? don't know
G° : but we don't have long to find out if you are or not
TimeTravel_0 : Besides...do you know how big a hole 2 singularities make when their magnetic filed collapses?
G° : won't be long before CERN (?) make the discovery
TimeTravel_0 : That's right.
G° : no
TimeTravel_0 : Welll....either do I. But I don't want to know.

You can NEVER time travel because time does not exist.  "Does time exist" is one of humanity oldest questions. The ancients came to the conclusion that time does not exist. Philosophers throughout history supported their conclusion. Modern science back them up.

Not if you believe in the theory that time/reality branches and isn't locked in a straight line thus creating an infinite number of alternate existences. If that's the case then "traveling through time" isn't what really is going on, it's more like traveling to a date/point in a different parallel universe, one that either already branched off of ours, or is created as soon as you "land" there causing it to branch off.

time travel does exist and humans have effectively traveled fwd in time. They are called astronauts and due to relativity when they leave earths gravity, they are micro seconds farther in time younger.

That's a good question. However it proved time does not exist. In order for time to exist everybody have to move to the same drumbeat, ie Newton theory on Time. Time does not move in the same drumbeat as we now know.



Let use your example: Lets said the astronaut been in space so long, he is 1 year in the future from ground control. He call back to earth and ask ground control to send him a pizza. Lets think for a second, how is that possible? The ground control is his past. His present is 1 year in the future yet he is able to called his pass and order a pizza from ground control (his pass). It possible because "time" is relative to the person. Like the other poster posted the past and the future live in the present. There is no past there is no future, only present. Time travel cannot happen because everybody is living in the present.



If you're still confuse try reading this. Is more detail.

Yes, Hard to pinpoint what's the best one thing but I would say don't ever put all your eggs in one basket and always think about what you would do if the world as you know it now is turned upside down. In other words mentally prepare yourself.
