Another way to do this is to drive down a long, straight stretch of interstate at night. Your mind gets so bored with the continual lack of input that it starts making stuff up and/or warping the space-time continuum.

Of course, because if one person is bored, the entire universe shifts to accomodate them.

See, right now, I'm so bored, we're all moving forward in time..........................................

It's now 2012! Sweet!

Um. What's to say we genuinely don't experience a form of special relativity caused by some form of spatial distortion in our brains? In relativity, your frame of reference can be distorted while other people's don't change - e.g. what the poster describes.

Don't be so hasty to discard seemingly silly ideas, especially when they have a scientific relevancy biggrin

you got it backwards. the faster you move the faster you can pass up time if you could move at the speed of light or faster. thats why they say that if you travel in a spaceship for 4 years at the speed of light and then came back to earth you would realize that everyone on earth actually aged 8 years and you only 4.

Everything in the universe as we know it is dependent upon our perception of it. That way you could half argue what is being proposed.

Then again, it could just be mindless tosh.

I would have to go with the latter.

Of course, if you REALLY want to slow down time, the way to go is pot.

[Insanity in a Bottle]

Time does not go faster or any of that crap. Your mind just doesnt pay attention to anything, and is not functioning. It has no need to keep track of time. Time flys by on tests for me.
One way to travel foward and back in time is stupid, but kind of true? Anways, if you live on the east coast in the US, get a plane that goes really fast, and fly to the west coast. If you can make it there in under three hours, you have traveled, or stayed in one time. If you are on the west coast, you dont really need a plane to go fast or anything, but you travel foward in time 3 hours. Nifty eh? lol

Time is merely a measurement...

[Telamont Tanthul]

Time is mearly a measurement of what? The time that passes?

Scientific relevancy? Look. If someones mind wanders, and time seems to pass quicker for them, does that also make the time in everyone elses perception quicken? No. Does it change 'time' at all? No. Does the daydreaming person age? Yes. Therefore: It is not time travel.

I don't see how this is relevant at all.

Now, adressing the emboldened statement. Like I said, relativity. Since his frame of reference is distorted, and everyone elses isn't, he is therefore not time traveling. If someone were to watch him doing this 'traveling,' he wouldn't just suddenly wink out of existance and appear again when he 'comes back' from his daydream. Time would flow as normal, and the person would see him just sitting there. Once again, this shows it is NOT time travel.

ok jeez, you guys get so angry

i thought i clearly stated that my form of time travel only altered your own sense of time passing by. yes you do get older. and this has absolutly nothing to do with Einstiens "Twins" thing although i agree with that also, Einstein was talking about physical movment and i am talking about mental movement.

[poisonous_pixie_dust]

this is all very interesting... I'm captivated by the idea and will now have to find out more.

[Scotsman on a horse]

Well, most of you guys don't get that it has a lot to do with philosophy and psychology (both to explain something in a projected science). Another possibility that logic also suggests is that the only thing changing is our memory of the past, but then again, that can't really be proven (neither can anything else... and then you can't believe in the memory of a memory, now can we?).

[leatherwing]

Time travel is possible but, you need to travel faster than the speed of light!!
You see do like super man and back to the future, like b2tf build a vhicle that can go really fast, and then like super man go the opposite way of the rotaion of the earth, but you need to travel faster than the speed of light untile you are going so fast that the earth starts to spin in the other direction so that the earth is in reverse than when you stop you have gone back in time.

time travel is possible and i have done it...

first, you must all understand that all us humans are traveling forward through time as we percieve it. have you ever noticed that when you are hanging with your friends time flys and when you are taking a test time seems to stop.

time as we see it s based on the ammount of realizations that we experiance in a certain amount of "time" therefore the faster we think the slower time goes because we are constantly observing and catagorizing and thinking...

If only we could all go back in time and beat you with a stick.

I think someone already went back in time and dropped him on his head.
