The One That Will Make Sense After I Explain It

Pay attention.  There will be a test at the end for 20% of your grade.

1.  Future Verne goes back in time 11 days to just BEFORE future RJ, Hammy and Larry arrive back.

2.  He meets past RJ, Hammy, Larry AND PAST VERNE (T left this part out).

3.  Future Verne continues in time machine to ANYWHERE in time.

4.  Future Verne destroys time machine.

Now there are TWO Vernes annoying (and apparently being worshiped by) others in two different time lines.

Make sense?  No?

Me either.

“Wibbly Wobbly Time-y Wimey Stuff”

“People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but *actually* from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint – it’s more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly… time-y wimey… stuff.”
― Steven Moffat, writer, executive producer of “Dr. Who”

“His older self had taught his younger self a language which the older self knew because the younger self, after being taught, grew up to be the older self and was, therefore, capable of teaching.”
― Robert A. Heinlein

Physicists often quote from T. H. White’s epic novel The Once and Future King, where a society of ants declares, “Everything not forbidden is compulsory.” In other words, if there isn’t a basic principle of physics forbidding time travel, then time travel is necessarily a physical possibility. (The reason for this is the uncertainty principle. Unless something is forbidden, quantum effects and fluctuations will eventually make it possible if we wait long enough. Thus, unless there is a law forbidding it, it will eventually occur.)
