Hello Wayne,

>AA>All  he  wants  is  to be allowed to return to the future in his "time
>AA>craft."

>LL>His wife and kids must be wondering what is taking him so long to get
>LL>back home.

>AA>That should not be a problem as long as he returns to the same point of
>AA>time in the future of that he left.

>LL>On the other hand, if he changed the future by traveling back in
>LL>time, he may not have a future.

WC>But if he changed the future so as to not have a future he could not
WC>have come back in time to change that future.

WC>Such is the paradox ;-)

Yeah.  Change one small thing and you might eliminate yourself from the
future, meaning you never traveled back in time to change that future,
thus making you alive again.

WC>I've heard physicists argue that time travel IS theoretically possible
WC>with our current understanding.

And if such time travel is possible, with time travelers among us, we'd
never know.

WC>One merely needs a Jupiter sized chunk of exotic matter to power
WC>the operation.

There are plenty of stars in the universe.  As well as Jupiter-size
planets.

WC>Nothing likely to happen in the next few thousand years.

Folks in 1900 said much the same thing, not realizing how fast mankind
would advance over the next 100 years.
