Hail Pete,
First I want to say that I enjoy reading your posts. You always have a good way with words, and your ideas/arguements are well thought out. I'm writting to respond to some of your comments. I'm not really disagreeing, just commenting.
I agree that the type on this thread is BS, but there is a point: Entertainment. I enjoy the BS ideas here. I think that in a fantasy game forum BS theories are fun and appropriate. Real theories based on the little information known about this topic are also interesting, but I don't think we need to limit the thread to them. Maybe future posters should clarify if they are talking about BS or real ideas.
My post certainly was speculation, but not ignorance. It was meant to be a fun BS theory. Just something for entertainment's sake. Maybe it would have been more entertaining if moonshine was involved. ;) (we need a drunk smilie.) I am well aware that I don't know enough about physics and such to even comment on possible real theories. I didn't state in my post that it was BS. Next time I post for entertainment's sake, I'll make sure to say it.

Quote:There are two types of discussion of time travel. One is the pure BS type that is going on in this thread. Of that type, I agree that "there's no point discussing or debating such theories." In Fact, I believe I said it first.

Quote:Most of the "speculation" is really nothing more wild guesses based on ignorance or misunderstandings of the underlying theories. Or, more often, pure moonshine.
