[QUOTE="pauli, post: 29276, member: 88"] [b]Re: John Titor Debate![/b] Hi Apogee, Yes, it is very very possible the whole thing is a complete hoax. Personally, I don't care one way or the other. I believe, however, that people continue on with following this for reasons of their own, which may not relate at all to whether or not they believe this guy to be a time traveler. Some people continue to discuss these things because Titor brought up some subjects that are near and dear to their hearts. Others like the whole "conspiracy" edge to the writings.
