It brings the ratings up and we all get Secret Time Decoders with a compass and a special whistle that only Time Travel Police can hear once we spot a Real Time Traveler.

Titor's a fraud, why is this section of the message board even still open?

​

Well now Jesus, that's your opinion. Paul found some evidence that would back up your opinion. What's with all the huff and puff? When you own a board, you can make sure no Titor posts are made. But here, some people are still interested. Cool your jets there buckshot.

The name that Virtualgirl linked to the Foundation was actually "Titshaw," not "Titus."

No matter.

Consider this: the Roman ex-consul who saved Rome in 458 BCE, Cincinnatus, made a important revolutionary symbol for the new American nation because he was the "farmer general" who dropped his plowreins temporarily to take up power in an emergency, and quickly took up the reins again when the crisis passed. Washington, especially, was compared to Cincinnatus, and the idea fit nicely with that of a class of temporary leaders (as opposed to corrupt professional politicians).

Titor's posts are full of references to the same idea, and, in fact, he notes that a statue of their own heroic farmer general stands in the new capital, Omaha.

Cincinnatus' full name was Titus Quinctius Cincinnatus.

It's cool bud. You don't need to feel "duped" if you never believed in his story totally. While I had my doubts about his time travel initially, I really don't believe in Titor's time travel claims at all now. He did make some very interesting claims about the future though. That's what captured my attention about the whole thing. Let the story play out. We'll see what happens if anything.

Titor may well be a fraud, but the evidence presented in this thread does not confirm that.

But while we are on the subject- does anyone remember if JT said there would be massive earthquakes and floods?

Anything like the attrocity that just occured in Asia? It seems as though he would allude to that - since it has been the most devestating one in at least half a century - probably longer.

What I have presented in this thread is not meant to prove that Titor is a fraud. I have no interest in proving such a thing.

I have shown what I think is circumstantial proof that Titor is actually the invention of Jonathan Titus, who was indirectly responsible for the accumulation of science leading up to the IBM 5100, said to be the first PC and the target acquisition of Titor. The set of coincidences is too great, in my opinion, to be the result of random association.

Nor does the connection, as I have said, prove that Titus/Titor was not a timetraveler or somehow associated with time travel.

Very, very interesting Paul, but why the Internet tale then?
