Been thinking.
If time travel is possible would it not have been possible for all time ?
Can't really explain that, except that if it is simply technology stopping time travel then at some point in the future technology would advance to become such that everybody has an iTime and can freely move about whenever they want. This would lead to a time soup in which time has no meaning and hence all of human time becomes equal and time travel becomes possible at any time.
Unless I suppose, that humans become extinct before the iTime is developed but after the technology is such that only a few can travel for isolated periods and they either didn't come this far back or did not reveal themselves. But this would require two scenarios to act out simulateously and, presumably, immediately before humans became extinct the few that could would travel back and correct it.
Thus I concluded that humans will never travel through time, as they cannot do it now.
But then I though about it some more and confused myself.
Don't be silly.
If time travel was invented in the future, people would travel in time, but keep it secret from people in the past as they realise that those in the past could not responsibly handle the technology, or be capable of understanding the techonology.
Like trying to explain how to build a TV to somebody before electricty was invented - impossible.
Thus, time travel, if it is possible, can only make you go
forward in time, which is a pain in the arse as you are older when you get there, which means you are flatulent, forgetful, can't get it up, can't score and only want to watch Matlock or Dr Phil on TV
