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

Unless he is jailed for 20 years; would be hard to hide the aging from his 
wife. On the plus side, I'd wager that 20 years of aging would be easily 
fixed by the technology from that era. Do you think the people of the 
future read fidonet for it's ancient historical value? Wow, that would 
mean anything we haven't even posted yet has, in some way, already been 
read by someone from the future.
