Message from the Future

Time travel has long been a staple of science fiction. Can it really happen? Who knows?

What if it was possible to send information back in time? They are doing experiments to see if that's possible (at least according to the episode I saw of Through the Wormhole). But in my mind, I took it one step further.

What do you think you'd do if you got a message from your future self? Would you believe it? Would you act on it?

    Yes. The only message I would ever send are winning lotto numbers.

    I wouldn't, at least at the onset--unless the message mentioned something secret only I know, either about myself or another person.

    Hm, I think I would act on it, but I wonder how the message would come. I really have to start watching that show.

    I love fantasy books, but I don't know if I would believe it in real life. It would have to be some pretty compelling evidence.

I appreciate your comments.

I respond to comments* via email, unless your profile email is not enabled. Then, I'll reply in the comment thread. Eventually. Probably.

*Exception: I do not respond to "what if?" comments, but I do read them all. Those questions are open to your interpretation, and I don't wish to limit your imagination by what I thought the question was supposed to be.
