 Being Retired now, I thought that it was time for a new name to this Blog |
Time Travel? Well, I wrote an entry about CERN, and the possible discovery of Parallel Universes. I've since come to the conclusion that since it wasn't a post on the CERN Website, it was all conjecture. That's the polite way of saying it was, at best, a Wrinkle Fish. If you Google Wrinklefish, you won't see the correct photo of one. Use your imagination, and know this came from shipmates on my second Submarine. Or, ask me in an email, and I'll reply. This is another theory that has fascinated me for years. Probably during me teens, when I first read H.G. Wells, The Time Machine. The video below is a take on this idea, and is a bit out there. The video does make an interesting point, but I'm not a UNIX guy, so I can't vouch for it's facts. Apparently it centers around a 32-bit UNIX system. A 32-bit UNIX system counts time in Seconds, and they all have a common 'start date'. But it can only recognize 2,147,483,647 seconds, which is Tuesday, January 19, 2038. I warned you that it's a bit out there. The video centers around someone named John Titor. Google him and you'll see that I was right about it being Wrinklefish material. Do you smell what I do? That link makes me smile though. It says: Titor described his time machine on several occasions. In one early post, he described it as a "stationary mass, temporal displacement unit powered by two top-spin, dual positive singularities", (Flux Capacitors?) and producing a "standard off-set Tipler sinusoid". The earliest post was more explicit, detailing the components of the machine: Two magnetic housing units for the dual micro singularities An electron injection manifold, to alter mass and gravity of the micro singularities A cooling and X-ray venting system Gravity sensors, or a variable gravity lock (VGL) Four main cesium clocks Three main computer units According to the posts, the device was installed in the rear of a 1966 Chevrolet Corvette convertible. Later posts mentioned a 1987 truck with four-wheel drive. (I wonder if they ever installed it in a DeLorean, and had to reach 88 mph?) It's an entertaining post in Wikipedia, the video has too much Wrinklefish material in it to be taken seriously. See what you think... |
