[QUOTE="Yeats, post: 215359, member: 12720"] You want a Mandela Effect? Really? Okay, fine. How’s this one? Find – if you can – any evidence of a forum called SOPHIA. Use your Google, your Wayback Machine, your lucky rabbit’s foot, whatever. You won’t find it. Ever. Yes, there’s a forum called SOPHIA around today, but its focus is on women with HIV and it’s not the one I’m talking about. The SOPHIA I remember was an internet bulletin board which disappeared 20 years ago this September, and its focus was the paranormal and time travel. (Sound familiar?) Among those who frequented this board were about a dozen or so individuals who called themselves the U Group. (Try finding [I]them[/I], too. Good luck.) Their “specialty” was writing posts and articles concerning alternate realities and simulated reality (this was shortly after the release of the first Matrix film, but well before Nick Bostrom’s “simulation hypothesis”). They also worked out something called “U theory”, from which the U Group got its name. The U Group was “led” – if you want to call it that – by two folks who went by the user-names Taobot and Maya (and, if you happen to find either one of them, you win the special grand prize). There were others as well (like I said, about a dozen) including one member who didn’t contribute very much, but was nevertheless very interested in the discussions which took place there. (He went by the name “traveller” at that time. I had absolutely no problem finding him. All I had to do was look in a mirror.) Online forums disappear every day, I know. Owners and admins, sooner or later, tire of their hobby and close up shop. I understand that. What I do [I]not[/I] understand is why I not only cannot find any trace of SOPHIA, but also cannot locate any former member of the U Group. Nor have I found anyone – in 20 years of searching – who remembers anything about it or them. Over the years, I have joined forums where I thought members of the U Group might be “hiding”, but have still not found anyone (other than myself) who was there. So… Mandela Effect… or mental aberration… or spooky mumbo jumbo? I have no idea. [/QUOTE]
