[QUOTE="JimmyD, post: 164781, member: 9832"] That ignores a very valid point I made previously in this thread. Your tests and expectations are presumptuous, flawed, and, to an extent, arrogant. First of all, you cannot create a test for something you do not know or understand. You have nothing to base anything from. How can you possibly develop qualifiers and/or parameters for a testing procedure on nothing but absolute speculation? We may as well be talking about fairies' preferences in footwear. What if time travel exists, but it is something odd like that it happens at several hundred degrees and with a low mass limit, meaning only small objects? What if you could only send thin titanium or ceramic sheets with words/data inscribed on it and it costs a few million dollars of fissionable fuel material per trip? Now how do your tests apply? And IF it actually resembles anything like you expect it to be, would have to be done in a way that all can see or it is still subject to faith in someone's honesty. This requires certain parameters that need to be considered. It is not necessarily as simple as you presume. We simply do not know. And IF someone were a time traveler, they would not necessarily give any indication whatsoever they were a traveler or have a need to prove it to anyone. What makes any of us so special that we should be able to demand a time travel mission to suit our individual demands for proof? And how do we even know that is possible? What if it is a one way thing? What if it is something that can only be done under rare/unusual limited conditions, like only once every few years? Who's to say that a legitimate traveler couldn't arrive and hang out for a decade or two with no proof? They can perceivably show up on a thread somewhere claiming to be a traveler but be unable to meet the demands of proof from the audience. Easy enough? ...ya sure 'bout that? ..I'm not. [/QUOTE]
