Umm if time doesnt exist then we won\'t duh. thats worst explanation yet. A thing thats on your clock... jeez

If I can ever travle through tim Im gonna go to the 70\'s and jump in a van with some hippes and follow bands around on tours

That or become a pirate, arr
Or become a ninja, hmm what do ninjas say. NINJA!

All I can say is that none of us will probably be alive when the answer is clear, so I don\'t think it is worth the time explaining why I think time travel is not possible. Besides, how many people have we seen from the future? Then again, they could also be invisible to aviod changing the past, so they are just watching us. o.o eep

There are just too many things as people that we don\'t know and cannot comprehend in order to find this out yet.

Why are you dicussion time travel? Just go to a very powerfull mage and ask very nicely for mage to cast the time travel spell. Even better become excellent friends and go travelling through time and space exploring the realm.

Wikipedia: Einstein\'s Special Theory of Relativity (and, by extension, the General Theory) very explicitly permits a kind of time dilation that would ordinarily be called time travel. The theory holds that, relative to a stationary observer, time appears to pass more slowly for faster-moving bodies: for example, a moving clock will appear to run slow; as a clock approaches the speed of light its hands will appear to nearly stop moving. However, this effect allows \"time travel\" only toward the future: only forward, never backward. It is not the most interesting kind, nor the kind typical of science fiction.

Heh, thats the funny thing, if people do say they are from the future they are called lunatics and ignored so as far as we know there could be hundreds of them.

time is really both perception (in as much as \"reality\" itsself is a perception) and science.. therefore one could either time travel by perceiving a differnet time or by means scientific.. take your pick really.. as is true of the multiverse there are serveral ways to do everything pick one and go for it already

So THATS who\'s taking up so much traffic in our streets, jerks from the future watching us from the road in their honda civics! I always wondered why I see more cars than houses no matter where I went.

Science, always a beatiful subject to talk about. It is right? It is wrong?
I say both of them. Yea, it\'s complicated but that is the answer.
And as for these kind of things that guide our lives, think at math. A science of precision, on which most of what we have is based. What if something like math will be proved wrong?

I almost forgot, here\'s a litlte exercise for you kids

1/3 + 2/3 = 3/3 = 1

But what if you actually do ->

(1 : 3) + (2 : 3) = ? ... is it still one? :rolleyes:

Hurray for the math

Arzosah · « **Reply #53 on:** January 07, 2005, 07:54:10 pm »

Of course it\'s still one, what are you trying to prove?

It is still 1...........

The only way it may be different is on calculators because 1 / 3 = .3 repeating and 2 / 3 = .6 repeating. Calculators do not and cannot have an infinite decimal place, so it has to round at some point, so to a calculator, 2 / 3 = .666666666666666666667. Its the same reason why calculations with PI on calculators are never truely precise.

Are you sure it\'s still one?
Actually, it\'s an undefined number that uses a period.
points to * 0.(9)
That isn\'t one mate

And I am trying to prove that nothing is so sure around

* EDIT *
It will never be one mate

Foresteer · « **Reply #56 on:** January 08, 2005, 02:34:39 am »

well i\'m no mathmatist so i can argue that one way or another... if anybody wants to get into time travel there are many books and once i can hunt down the buggers there is time space labs Inc. i recommend books though.. mainly montauk series if you want to go about with \"science\" if you want to go about it psionicaly try \"chronolgy\" or \"chronokinesis\" on the web... i prefer using both a little though.. by far the easist once you gat all that reading on them both done -.- (study in orgone and leylines is a must.. they are the only power sorce to power such a device tomy knowledge.. and for heavens sake build a purple plate!)

I don\'t know what you\'re trying to say, to be honest ;-)

But let\'s see:

Hurray for the math

1/3 = 0.33...
10*1/3 - 1/3 = 9/3 = 3
3.33... - 0.33... = 3

2/3 = 0.66...
10*2/3 - 2/3 = 18/3 = 6
6.66... - 0.66... = 6

So we have:
9*(1/3) = 3 and 9*(2/3) = 6
9*(1/3 + 2/3) = 9
1/3 + 2/3 = 1

Basic mathematics ;-)
I\'ve just proven you wrong

0.(9)
let\'s have a closer look shall we?

x = 0.(9)
10x = 9.(9)
10 x - x = 9.(9) - 0.(9)
9x = 9
x = 1

therefore
0.(9) = 1

dum de dum :]
math class here, \"mate\"

Oh, I don\'t live in the US ;-) I didn\'t know what 0.(9) meant ;-) In Belgium, we just write 0.99...
Sigh! I did ALL that work while I could have done it in such a simple way? X(
