[net.misc] Traveling in time

wall@sri-unix (08/12/82)

   Some of these articles get pretty heavy, so I'll keep my thoughts as simple
as possible (some people even believe that to be true always). I feel that time
can be thought of as slices, one following the other. If I were to walk down
the street, and it took 1 minute, and then I were to go back in time that one
minute, then I would be at the start of my walk. So if you could go back in
time you would be exactly where you were at that time in the first pass. If that
is the case, then you would be exactly as you were back then (with no idea  
that you just came back in time). This would be neat to relive some of those 
nice moments in ones life, but doing the same thing over and over?  If it were
possible to go back in time and still retain your thoughts (that happened some 
time in the future) this would enable you to do something different than you
did the first time. My point is that going 'back' in time and then following
a different path is not travelling the past, but mearly following a new future
path from that point. Personnaly I feel that if you go back in time, you would 
just relive exactly what happened before, if you went back too far, then time  
would have to pass untill you were born and then your life would follow the
same path. THOUGHTS ARE LOST AS YOU TRAVEL BACK IN TIME. (Hypothesis)
