2-0-0-7!
Happy new year! It is now 2007! Time for a psychological stimulant about time! You probably think that time travel is a pretty cool thing. Have you ever thought about going forward into the future, and learning that pollution was solved. So you teleport back to your time, and you tell everyone that pollution is solved in the future. So everyone stops worrying about pollution and doesn't do anything about it, assuming that it's the job of the future humans. What if it was through the actions of the people in your time that pollution was solved, and the future humans did nothing? You have now messed time up, in addition to the planet and the overall health of its inhabitants. There is even more trouble in going back in time. Have you ever heard of the time paradox? That's what I'm talking about. Say you go back in time and accidently kill your father before he meets your mother? Then you can't be born. That means that you were never alive. So basically you disappear into some void. But if you never existed, than you coudn't have gone backin time to kill your father, so he is still alive, meaning that you are still alive, so that your father isn't alive, so you aren't alive, which means that your father is still alive, which means that you are still alive, which means that your father isn't still alive.... Get my point? Time is very dangerous.

One theory is that if you change something really big when you go back in time, you creat in alternate reality with that difference in it, but you can go back to the reality where you came from, and things will be as if you never changed something (because, in that reality at least, you didn't).
Or, you just can't go back in time.
