John Titor - I am from 2036 Post to Post (http://bbs.artbell.com/index.php) - Time Travel (http://bbs.artbell.com/forumdisplay.php?forumid=25) -- I am from 2036 (http://bbs.artbell.com/showthread.php?threadid=1203) Posted by John Titor on 01-27-2001 12:45 PM Greetings. I am a time traveler from the year 2036. I am on my way home after getting an IBM 5100 computer system from the year 1975. My "time" machine is a stationary mass, temporal displacement unit manufactured by General Electric. The unit is powered by two, top-spin, dual-positive singularities that produce a standard, off-set Tipler sinusoid. I will be happy to post pictures of the unit. Posted by Mike Klinge on 01-27-2001 03:01 PM Hi, As you are well aware of, I am sure, people can post anything here, whether or not it is true. What proof do you have that you have traveled through time? Rest assured that I want to believe you, but why should I believe? Thank you for indulging me. Posted by John Titor on 01-27-2001 09:15 PM I have been commuinicating online with others who are interested in time travel. Also, for more information: http://www.p3n.org/pn120100.shtml [Edited by Mary Rowland on 01-28-2001 at 03:04 PM] Posted by Kevin Spooner on 01-28-2001 03:23 AM Question Just an obviously curious note: If you were returning from the 1970's to 2036 (um that's 66 years).... and you are using a time-travel machine.... why on earth would you just per chance stop in 2001? Let alone have a web page. Answer welcome - I didn't know time travel had resting stops between scheduled trips? Hey - I'm not going to disbelieve on that basis, just curious. Posted by John Titor on 01-28-2001 06:35 AM My initial flight was from 2036 to 1975 (61 yrs). I then went from 1975 to 2000 (25 yrs.) Later this year, one of two favorable windows will open and I will return to my 2036 (35 yrs.) I am here now for personal reasons. The web page is not mine. I have been speaking online for about three months and the page is a collection of the various documents and pictures I have sent to other individuals. Also, I realize there is no way for anyone to believe me with absolute certainty so I hope I'm at least entertaining. You may be interested to know that even in 2036, there are a large number of people who don’t believe in time travel. Are you sure the world is round? Posted by Theresa Wood on 01-28-2001 07:33 PM I read the q&a on the link posted and I found it to be very interesting. Whether you are a time traveler or not is not relevant. This is a very probable scenario of what our future holds if things continue on their present course. Sometimes we need to step out of a situation in order to see it more clearly. A time traveler from the future "seeing" the events of the day helps in understanding the current social/political trends. You hit it square on the head, in my opinion. I enjoyed reading it, thanx! Posted by Jeret Schisler on 01-28-2001 07:40 PM Wink John, Can you please tell me some lotto numbers for 2036? I'll be ready to retire around that time. if I'm still alive. Thanks Posted by Kevin Spooner on 01-29-2001 02:45 AM Unhappy I visited your web page and it immediately struck me with those "photo's" you claimed to have put there or made available or believe in... mind if I ask something to clear my logical thinking mind... Why is it, given that laser printers etc can print up to 2,400cpi, (or at least 600cpi) and pictures can be scanned at god only knows what (9,600+cpi) why your text and graphics appear to be 1950's reproduction of a faint typewriter in need of a ribbon replacement (God I havn't used the word 'Ribbon' since.... hmmm.) And then there's the fact that given the obvious typewriter appearance, the 'text' sure wasn't made in 2036. Oh... please don't use the "oh - technology went by the board by then." approach cause it won't stick. Please understand that I have examined time travel and parallel world theories extensively and therefore only seek to clarify these points with you. Posted by John Titor on 01-29-2001 07:47 AM Please keep in mind the web site is not mine and I apologize for the poor quality of the files. The photo you saw was taken by me with a Polaroid camera manufactured here. The other documents were duplicated by placing a book onto a copy machine at a packaging and shipping store and then scanning and saving them. As for the printing technology in 2036, you may be surprised at how many people use typewriters however I agree the documents were probably not created that way. I too am very anxious to hear your thoughts and questions on time travel / gravity displacement and any comments on the Everett Wheeler Graham model. Posted by Lee Heggy on 01-29-2001 12:14 PM 2036 sounds more like 1836 with all the 'good stuff' of modern life thrown in. Personally I prefer our current time-line even with all of it's excess and decadency it's an exciting time to be alive and I can still multiply and divide in my head. Posted by John Titor on 01-29-2001 03:48 PM Although the documents posted were printed from a computer printer, is it really that hard to believe that manual typing is just a bit more common in thirty years? After the war, many things like manual printing machines, bicycles, sailboats and hand tools were valued a great deal. I have noticed more people in California are installing wood burning stoves. I realize my claims are a bit ridiculous but my intent is not really to be believed. However, if I had an opportunity to talk to a time traveler, I might ask questions like: How exactly does the singularity sensor measure the expansion of the inner event horizon or why does the reality of multiple worlds support the religious dogma that there are no good or bad people just good and bad desicions or what were the political motivations that changed the U.S. Constitution? Posted by Mike Kolesnik on 01-29-2001 06:38 PM Red face Ho hum...ANOTHER time travler. Well, time to run him thru the BS o'meter. Did you ever notice how time travlers never specify events that happen in the NEAR future? As in a week to a month or so. The reason why is because then people could check on these "events" to determine if they have happened or not. Well John, answer a few questions that any person from the future should know (or at least have easy access to) 1. What was the final death count in the recent India earthquake? 2. What is the "Ginger" (IT) invention? 3. Who wins the Stanley Cup (Hockey) this year? Posted by Kimberly Nease on 01-29-2001 07:26 PM Angry Super questions. This "time traveler" should have NO trouble at all answering these questions, especially the GINGER one so get cracking John. Kim Posted by John Titor on 01-29-2001 09:10 PM How do you figure I have easy access? I can appreciate your skepticism but I must admit I’m confused by your choice of questions. I fail to understand why a time traveler would be expected to know the details you ask. Right now, do any of you know the details of the first week in February for 1970? For that matter, could you tell me from memory if it rained in Atlanta last week? Is a sports almanac a required or expected piece of equipment for all “time machines”? At least you didn’t ask the standard “what stocks should I buy” question. Interesting that no one ever asks which stocks to sell. I’m sure my answers will be quite unsatisfying but you should know I do not want your unshakable faith nor do I think anyone should give it so easily if a “time traveler” were able to answer those questions. In fact, over this medium, it’s impossible to prove I’m a time traveler, therefore, it’s impossible to believe. Actually, I depend on that a great deal so I don’t have to worry about being picked up by your friendly law enforcement officers. What do you think they would do with two micro-singularities? So here goes... (1). I have no idea. (2). It looks like some sort of motorized scooter. What do you think “IT” is? (3). I know this one but I think it would be unfair and immoral for anyone to win a bet based on something I’ve told them. Posted by Stephen McKay on 01-29-2001 10:16 PM I'm sure it would be unfair and immoral if we had certainty, but the truth is anyone placing a bet on your answer would still be gambling on whether you are in fact from the future. Spill the beans! Posted by Kevin Spooner on 01-30-2001 04:57 AM Talking I can understand the ethics at hand here quite well.
