If you're reading this, you have too much time on your hands.
This is one I can say that I haven't seen before (it happened to make it past my spam filter, so I may have gotten it before:
Subject line: Dimensional warp Generator Needed
I'm a time traveler stuck here in 2003. Since nobody here seems to be able to get me what I need (safely here to me), I will have to build a simple time travel circut to get where I need myself. I am going to need an easy to follow picture diagram for a simple time travel circut, which can be built out of (readily available) parts here in 2003. Please email me any schematics you have. I will pay good money for anything you send me I can use Or if you have the rechargeable AMD dimensional warp generator wrist watch unit available, and are 100% certain you have a (secure) means of delivering it to me please also reply. Send a separate email to me at: info@federalfundingprogram.com.
Let's see, now where did I put those time travel schematics... .

One of the comedy sketch shows now takes the mickey out of it by getting an actor to dress up as one of the characters and then walking into (for example) a furniture store and asking if their wardrobes allow for intergalatic space travel.
Jake Ortman said on 07/24/03 @ 08:54 AM: Yup...came into the US via PBS. I never really watched it , however.

rodney said on 04/16/04 @ 07:52 PM: ps. just happen to have a new DWG unit, the rechargable AMD wrist watch modle with the GRC79 induction motor, four 180200 warpstabilizers, 512GB of SRAM and the menu driven GUI with front panel XID display.
This unit is certified safe for carbon based life forms.
Interested???
Rodney said on 04/17/04 @ 11:27 AM: Further re the DWG.
Ya know...the string theory still dominates physics due to its continued "effect' of encompassing other physical properties from unrelated fields. A LOT of the theoretical mathmatics behind time travel was discoverd by testing various ideas in string theory & eliminating the anomalies. As i recall, it was this original work that led to the final proof that 6 dimensions do indeed curve in to give us our observable universe. This supported morte of the theroretical math behind time travel.
It's ironic that the beauty of string theory gives future engineers the confidence to create the distortion unit even tho the final proof is still unknown.
