> [@](#): > > People Different From Us > > Alongside recent weight-loss and body-part-growth mass e-mails have been messages of Robert Todino, 22, of Woburn, Mass., who uses the spam (100 million messages so far) to locate time-travel hardware to buy because of his need to revisit his childhood, during which he believes a woman drugged him and implanted a device to give her followers the ability to monitor his every move. According to an August Wired magazine story, Todino has earnestly been seeking an “Acme 5X24 series time transducing capacitor with built-in temporal displacement” and an “AMD Dimensional Warp Generator module containing the GRC79 induction motor,” among other gadgets, but that “the conspiracy” has subverted his attempts to acquire them.

Oh and if you happen to run across one of those AMD Dimensional Warp Generator modules let me know, I´d be interested in acquiring one as well 🙂
