And there's always the question raised in "The Dead Zone." If you could go back in time, say, to the turn of the century, when Hitler was an innocent little boy...no armies, no funny mustache...

 

Could you kill him?

these lines was Ray Bradbury's The Sound of Thunder (think that was the title)

 

 

 

Was that the story about the guy writing his college paper, and then goes on a weird mind trip of a time travel ride.

 

He writing his paper, he sees a guy in his room, they have a fight, they fall into a time travel thing, events lead him to go back to warn himeself not to get in the fight..

But he ends up the fighting himself back in the room, so he keeps .coming back to warn himself, but he getting in a fight with himeself because he doesnt reconginze himself..... so . he keeps coming back to stop himself from going back in time, but the accidents that happen are all part of history as they happen, so even though the events are new to the wrinkle, it is added to it and therefore meant to happen.

There is also a part of the story about a race of people he meets while there, and becomes their leader..?

 

I need to look up that story.. I know I butchered it just now , but Bradburys story is by far the best grasp of how time travel would work, and what you would do if you could.And all the problems it presents

 

Anyhow, was that the story you meant ?

now that my brain hurts, I will go ice it with a beer.

Oh and to answer your post question.

 

I have thought about this before.

And I have a hard time deciding, but I have decided I would not go back to witness "moments in history"

But rather observe a time period.

 

You say the Dinos... and thats hard to argue.

 

But for me , for purely selfish reasons , I want to see The Great Pyramids being built.

No, The Sound of Thunder........Dinosaur hunting via Time Travel, guy steps on a butterfly....ring a bell?

 

Also done as a comic book feature for EC, by Wood I think. Find me that cover guys!

what I always find interesting is 99% of the time this question is raised, it will invariably go to the "Hitler Question"...to kill or not to kill.

I'd go back to 1977... I was skinny and getting laid more....

 

so was I and I was only three years old

Aw shucks...I hate being predictable. Maybe it's time to insert a different name. Bin Laden perhaps. Or that kid who stole my bike in the third grade.

 

What time period would I go back to? The day before Edgar Church's family called up Chuck and asked him to come take a look at the comics clogging up their basement. I'd show up at their door with a wad of cash, 22,000 mylars, and a U-Haul.

Im thinking it is a reflection of the times....Hitler did (or ordered) the most horrible things we can imagine so naturally we would go back to him. Who knows if the next generation will answer the question using Bin Laden instead.
