    Has anybody ever read this book by Preston B. Nichols & Peter Moon:

    The Montauk Project
    Experiments in Time ?

    Copyright 1992.

    As I have always felt like a time traveler I have always kept my ear and eyes open for information on it. For many years I dared not to breathe a word about it to anyone.

    The way I found out about Dr. David Anderson was searching youtube. I was in shock when I found out about his research. I kept this to myself for quite awahile as well and looked up to see who was debunking him nobody really is so I thought maybe he is for real. Now he says he has a patent on a device. He and other scientist feel that the public must be told about it because it is in use today.

    > Until Recently, physicists have held that the direction of Time can-not be determined by any physical experiment. But now we know that long-lived neutral k-mesons can decay into 2-pi-mesons, indicating time reversal...
    also, the r-l symmetry of physics is violated by certain weak nuclear interactions.

    > CHECK-OUT... N.A. Kozyrev; An Experimental Study of Time, a paper which describes experiments which demonstrate some of the physical properties of Time.

    > Time is a Force, an actual energy that has Density, Speed ( 700 km./sec. ), Direction, Rotation Moment & other properties. Time can also be shielded against or attracted. Paper includes plans for a "Time Camera."

    > Also Includes a short article about an Experiment where Einstein sent a Mouse forward in Time!

    > Also of Interest is... Tom E. Beardon On Time, Quantum Change & Universal Closure.

    > Lysiak & Mays... Light Moves Backwards in Time.

    > Oliver Nichelson... Tesla Studies - includes an analysis of Time Dialtion in Tesla Coils!

    > Frank Tipler... Rotating Cylinders & Global Causality Violation.

    ( papers published by Rex Research )

    A Few Books are...

    1 .the Works of Herman Minkowski.

    2. the Fourth Dimension by Rudy Rucker.

    3. On Time by Michael Shallis.

    Have Fun!

    My only question on that... Is... WHAT... Is it being used for? I can get some pretty scary images going through my head on the subject.

    Sort of like that movie "the adjusters" or the movie "The Dark" or something similar, where when you slept, people messed your shit around and changed your whole dynamic. (made you poorer/richer, changed who you married, how many kids you had, etc etc in some sick experiment)

    That is really scary. Now, think time travel, if they decide you are "inconvenient" they don't need to lock you up, or have prisons, they simply go back in time and have your parents use better birth control... POW... No more you...

    I guess it could really help curtail crime, etc (like in minority report) but still a scary ass thing to think about.

    However, I also keep wondering, that if time travel really did exist, how come they don't go back and prevent some of the most horrible mistakes in history? (prevent chernobyll, snuff hitler when he was in the field, or prevent the war entirely)

    That to me is one of my biggest questions.. But then I don't really need to look to far for the answer... GREED.

    What to do? Look up stocks of companies that survived the 1939 stock market crash, go back in time, set up a financial company, buy $10,000 in stocks. Come back to the present, and do a massive sell off.. Boom. Rich and no one is the wiser... Or just go back in time and buy up a huge amount of gold and deposit in a bank. come back and do a massive sell off.. Well, you get the idea...

    > Basically, we can-not move an object back in time ( not without Rotating Cylinders / Worm Holes and stuff and even then, not to a point before your "gate" was created ).

    > Moving forward in time may be a different story!

    > Right now, the only technology I know of is that which can alter the flow of time, but that's all it can do.

    > In other words, you can create a "field" in which time moves slower or faster, say enclose a room in this field and power it up to speed up time, say a 24 to 1 ratio.
    So 1 hour passes on the outside while 24 hours pass inside the room.

    > Or draw off the energy of time and slow down it's flow inside the room.
    So 24 hours pass on the outside while only 1 hour passes for anyone inside the room.
    ( With enough energy, you can travel one-way into the Future like this! )

    > There are limits to how much you can alter the flow of time, mostly based on power used, it takes a LOT of energy to affect the flow of time, even a little bit!

    > That's about close to time travel as our Science has got, as far as I know!

    PEACE!

    Hey, I saw this movie! It was a wrist watch and they called it "Hyper Time".

    Do they have the same effects of growing older faster as well while in "Hyper Time"?

    Why would you want to manipulate and change something you have so little of? I'm serious here.

    I only have 70 years give or take. I spend so long sleeping, so long waiting through commercials. Why would I want to go back to manipulate or forward to observe when I have so little time as it stands?

    Maybe so that we could change it to suit our preference?

    if anything, you're arguing for time travel. if you have a very limited amount of something, you want to do everything you can to make the best of it.

    I dunno. Maybe your right. I just don't know what i wouli had one.d do with a time machine if i had one. Ill be thinking about this for days.

    Let's put it this way.. We waste a lot of time on crap that we sometimes regret. So.. Why not?

    For example, I for one can think of a few small minor things I would go back and change. Not huge big things, but some things.

    Hell, I don't even need time "travel". I wouldn't mind being able to slow down/stop time in some instances to allow me some extra time to get in an extra workout for example, or to sleep that extra 5 mins lol...

    Imagine for a second if we couldn't travel through time, but we could slow it down or stop it for a period of time... THAT would be incredibly useful as well.

    Of course, if everyone was doing this we might have a few million paradoxes on our hands..

    Like if I stopped time now, and my neighbor stopped time in the future, or if I stopped time just before he stopped time, or I stopped time at the same time... Well, it might tear time apart lol....

    Of course, if I stopped time for me, it wouldn't stop for you, and vice versa... :afro:

    THERE's something for you to think about!

    See now that's a good point. I would LOVE to stop time, not for too long though. Lets keep in mind though. This 'Time Machine' wouldn't exactly be in your local electronics section. It would be highly regulated.

    People wouldn't just go back and kill the evil ones. They would go back and save the good ones, which might seem like a good thing. I'm convinced that it would actually be a negative thing....

    I would be interested in a device that instead transported us to alternate universes. We would be merely spectators and have to ability to interact with the stimuli around us. I drool over ideas like that. Sorry to get off subject xD

    I'd like a time machine that could carry passengers.
    Then I'd take Stephen Hawkin back to meet Einstein and say "Right you two-sort it out!"

    LOL... Could be interesting...

    And at EventHorizon.. Yeah, the show SLIDERS was awesome for me. I don't know though, you would have to have absolutely nothing keeping you here (family, friends) in order to go sliding between worlds all the time. While incredibly interesting and awesome, I would think it would get lonely after a while.. And I can also think back on some of the episodes and imagine I wouldn't have wanted to land where they did! (most of the places were pretty cool, but there were some that certainly wouldn't be!)

    great show. but there would always be the uncertainty of not knowing if you really got back home.

    Permanently stopping time would be a banker's nightmare. Time is a component of interest rates. Annual percentage rates would be meaningless. The global economic system would collapse.

    They won't let us do it.

    Fuck interest rates. The interest rates would freeze as would the time. You would start it up again and everyone would be none the wiser.
