My Time Machine is ready for testing!

This is very exciting! I’ve been working very hard on it for almost a week, and I’m ready to test. I’ll probably make my first test run tomorrow. Or, as we time travellers call it: yesterday. :wink: Just kidding. If not tomorrow, then maybe Wednesday after work. We’ll see (busy busy busy).

Anyways, I’ll let you all know how the test goes. Wish me luck!

Shouldn’t we know already?
Shouldn’t we have known back when this Board was started, at the very latest?

I have to test it first, and then, if it works, you’ll already know. :rolleyes:

I have seen the future … where I saw a sad failure for this machine. :o

See? It works!

I’m afraid I’ve already beaten you to it, Winston - I have a fully-functioning time machine - I will prove this by travelling one minute into the past and posting again to this thread.

His didn’t work, the one I built next year does.

I’m back!

Thanks for the ride, Winston. Those personal flying cars are great.

I wonder if Winston will let me have a ride in his time machine? I’d like to go into the future a hundred years or so.

So you’re the one who caused that riot three weeks from now!

Even without the time machine, that could be me…

:cool:

Creating a time machine is easy: Let’s all of us Dopers commit ourselves to the creation of a time machine. Each of us is to watch for emerging technologies we could exploit in its creation. If, during our lifetimes, such technologies do not emerge, it is each of our duty to engage our children and children’s children to be on the lookout. Once the technologies emerge, our next task is to raise the funds. If no one lifetime is sufficient,… etc.

Clearly, if we are resolved to this, eventually a time machine will be created. As we pass down this commitment from generation to generation, let us also pass down this date/time “May 14, 2007 - 10:00 am (EST)”. Whichever of our descendents eventually succeeds, she is to return to this date/time and post the detailed schematics. Ready… set…

Judging by the fact that none of my atlases, maps, or history books makes reference to an African country called Martini Congo, I must declare your time machine to be an abject disappointment. :smiley:

Please, just don’t show your invention to Jack the Ripper.

Just remember to set up a failsafe unit as a back-up. A storage lock-up facility would be a good place for this.

Welcome to the World of Tomorrow!

You know, I had this idea long ago – I remember, it was November 5th, 1955…

A Flux Capacitor and some weapons grade plutonium is all that is needed for that model.

*Who knew that such a small change in things could result in a faulty chad design and cause such a massive change. *

What have you done to us, you… you… future-stealer??

At least we managed to avert the future with President Robertson.
