I predict this will be required reading for time travel agents: A Sound of Thunder, by Ray Bradbury. I highly recommend the story, and happy there is another SF fan out there in your readership. Well, more than one.

I would tell them they would need to go when they are not tired and without any cold. This would be a cool job and, knowing me, I would want to be on Titanic for one day which would be 2 days before the fateful night.Birgithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09439720285857050428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8925412579189247293.post-16056184221352660762016-09-13T21:22:10.831-07:002016-09-13T21:22:10.831-07:00I'm not gonna lie.

I can't answer the question because of my own terrible nerdoms.<br /><br />There are literally so many theories (and fictional pieces) on time travel and the different ways that travel to other eras might EFFECT time that I'm just not sure where to go with it.<br /><br />Gun to my head, I often prescribe to the idea of time travel actually equals dimensional travel...in which I would base the decision on where to visit on who was standing in front of me. As terrible as it sounds, race, gender, and religion all would play heavily into the decision because, let's face it, our history as humans is f***ed if you aren't a white male.H.R.
