Time travel is possible. WE all do it all the time. It's just in one direction and at a constant speed (as far as we know)...
Theoretically, if you were to go west at the same speed the earth is rotating, you have stopped time.... IF you went around faster and reached the sun again, you're went backwards a day. Same applies to the other direction... except in the other direction....
Speaking of which, there was this freaky Nova on the string theory. I couldn't get my head around it...

No, if you travel in the direction of the rotation of the earth at the same speed you don't stop time. However - you WOULD change time ever so slightly.
Synchronize two clocks, one in NY and one in London.
If you put a clock on a super fast plane and fly it from London to NY and the time on it will now be slightly behind.
Fundamentally though - if significant backwards time travel ever was to become possible then we'd already know about it.

yes, but I'm careful enough to avoid you noticing

I should have said that time stops for YOU... The object moving around the world. Everyone else keeps on going and you wouldn't notice the change...
I had something else, but I can't remember.

I think I must have hit my head really hard! Have I been reading a thread where mickeyp and ABF were actually getting along? Has something changed?????
I'm going back into hibernation....
When I wake up the next time, ABF will actually be spelling correctly!
Well if you had a time machine you could go back and see how the universe was made (if it was made) and "the cosmos" wouldn't allow that... Therefore time travel is either impossible or unidirectional.

"The cosmos" need to lighten up, and break a few rules from time to time. They never let us have any fun.

I think you are trying to make this to complicated. I use a Urinal to time travel. If I go before I leave work the trip home seems to take half as long

That's just dumb. You should alway wait till you get to work to go. That way you get paid for it.
edit:
Ok, I totally misread that. I thought it said "before i leave for work," but that would mean Image has a urinal at home. Anyway, you see what i was going for here.
