Quote:
time travel is invented in the future then we could hypothetically go back in
Let's assume that we invent time travel in the future. This means that instead of changing lets say WWI or WWII or any other mischief, we are saying that it was the best that could have happened? :doh:
Well, yes. Without WWII and WWIII and the impetus it gave to research, we wouldn't have been able to stop that asteroid from hitting the planet. Or was that next year? I always forget.

It is Leslie Nielsen who said it first. Actually, he was the first to say anything.

Whenever I am presented by the notion that travelling through time at anything other than 1 s/s is even remotely possible I offer the following - if at any time in the past or future of life on this, or any other, planet, a being should invent time travel then we would have known about it since before the earliest records. I think that was said by George VII.

That's definitely wrong, and is a case in point that you shouldn't believe anything you read on the internet.

Now you are just making sh*t up :laugh:

Well at the moment you are correct, but if time travel is invented in the future then we could hypothetically go back in time and get Winston Churchill or Abraham Lincoln to say these things for irony's sake.
I just recently bought a time machine, but having tried it once I don't think I'm going to buy it.

Perhaps it recursively provides an affirmation on the original quote too. :)

I'm going to assume that we invent time travel in the past.

I just came across some one's sig and it shows the quote "The problem with quotes on the internet is that you can never tell if they're genuine" from 'Winston Churchill (1944)'. But Google takes me to http://funny2.com/fakequotes.htm[^] indicating the quotation is from Abraham Lincoln. Anyways I believe the internet itself started as a politically recognized phenomenon only long after the periods of these people right? Any comments?

Don't forget the theory of relativity:
- Einstein was Lincoln's grandfather;
- Churchill was Einstein's son, and Lincoln's mother;
- Hawking is his own grandfather;

I read somewhere that it was first said by Napoleon Bonaparte around 1795. I believe the other two gentlemen stole the quote without giving credit to the original author.
But Boney was just paraphrasing Aristotle's Πραγματεία περί Αστεία βίντεο Γάτα στο Διαδίκτυο, written in 426 BCE and published by the ancient Sumerians. ;P
