It's always been all about Judy, right? She tried to help you understand the 
mechanics of consciousness using the TM tchnique. Obviously if you think it's 
all about Judy, then you failed to learn TM.

 Whatever your reasons for doing this, congratulations! 

Thanks I fully accept this praise. It is conscious, but also involuntary in

Judy *almost* managed a fairly clean exit from this place, leaving without a 
word of explanation and thus leaving behind a mystery. People could have been 
lulled by that seeming mystery into believing that she was making a new start 
or trying to become something different than she had been for years, or do 
something else that was...uh...actually positive. 

Yep, why not DO something, instead of just talk, talk, talk. You are active, 
doing something constructive in your life, and so do I - you know about that. 
So we blasted that 'mystery'. Though I think that mystery was never really 
planned by her, it was in all likelihood a physical necessity - which she is 
probably too embarrased to share with us. Her decline, also due to old age, was 
foreseeable. And it is a real blessing, that it is not actually working out in 
front of us all, we just got a little glimpse of it.
 

 By falling for your troll, she eliminated the possibility of that ever 
happening. In 9 short posts she revealed that instead of making some kind of 
new start and making some kind of spiritual progress away from FFL, SHE NEVER 
EVEN LEFT. She's been reading it compulsively, every day for ten months. 

 
One of my credos comes from cinematograpy: Don't say, show! Nobody can really 
prove how stupid he is, than a fool himself. Just let him act out. In this 
case, I do feel compassion with her, because she looked sooo bad! 


 We know this because she tried to make *her* version of the Lemming Rush to 
The_Leak into the definitive This-Is-The-Truth-Because-Judy-Says-It-Is 
version. We know that in the past she has berated people for spotty reading 
and claimed that they could not *possibly* know the truth about things that 
happen on FFL if they don't read every post the way she does, so we know that 
to make such a claim as to know exactly what happened with The_Leak exodus, 
she was reading every post. As I've suggested a couple of times, that is almost 
too pathetic to be commented on -- Judy Stein, mysteriously disappearing from 
FFL, but in reality glued to her screen reading every post, every day, because 
she's that addicted to it. 

 

 By falling for your troll, and then ranting about me, Salyavin and you the way 
she did, she also blew away any notion that anyone could have had that she'd 
moved on or somehow outgrown the hatred she was known for here for so many 
years. Not only is the hatred still there, it's worse than ever -- she's 
actually MORE angry and frustrated now after not interacting with us for ten 
months than she was before. 

Now this is really interesiting: how many people thought, in fact, that 'she 
has moved on'. There was always the possibility of a physical demise, or 
ailment, but it seems, that many, even true blue TMers (which she always was) 
believed, that she had a change of heart, that finally, she didn't post here 
anymore, because, she found her new beliefs not in allignment with her old 
ones, that some kind of lurking, underground conflict with the TM at large had 
resurfaced, and I feel that many would have seen this as a kind of progress, or 
at least some kind of liberation from her current mental prison. 

Because, if somebody like her, is so obsessive over the years, with a certain 
topic, TM, the TM technique and it's fundamental theory, she was not just 
obsessed with you and me, and isn't it largely interchangebale, all kinds of 
guys who came in the meantime, she obsessed about, a whole legacy of TM critics 
she was constantly chasing and obsessing about. How many have left here or at 
AMT because of her? What an honor that in her final replic here, my name 
appeared next to yours, but of course, our names are just placeholders for so 
many others.

This attachment and obsessiveness, wouldn't we all have subconsciously wished 
for her, that in some kind of sublime moment of grace was broken, not only her 
obsession with FFL and the persons involved, but also, and even more 
fundamentaly her obsession with basic TM thinking and theory. To break this, 
almost anything would have been good enough, and at least it would have given 
you the illusion, that change is indeed possible. She destroyed this illusion, 
by returning here and acting out as expected.

 

 Finally, by claiming that The_Leak (with a grand total of 9 people posting to 
it) is healthy and thriving and stealing people away from FFL (with an average 
of 27 people posting to it) is just nuts. Those who had somehow managed to 
forget how tenous Judy's relationship with reality was during her absence has 
certainly been reminded

You need to understand, Buck, that most of the current FFL informants come to

maybe read some rumors about TMers. 

There are very few serious posters here now since the schism. So, the the

although they may deny it.

 The challenge of FFL as a forum community is to find constructive ways of 
engaging with people. That takes kindness, tolerance and patience as skillsets 
and practice to be able to think together and be creative, to look at and solve 
problems together. FFL is a long ways from that by a grip of vice of some folks 
who dominate FFL.Collaborating in 'Disconfirmation': seeking different ways of 
looking at models, of 'thinking' in constructive conflict.Thoughtful 
conversation seems a willing kind collaborative, a kind cooperative 'process in 
disconfirmation'. By contrast a trust in kindness as element has been driven 
out of Fairfieldlife at Yahoo-groups by a dominant methodical use of personal 
invective in the ad hominem used as weapon to personally hurt people 
here.Collaboration in a type of, Love? In kindness to a creative process?Quite 
evidently thoughtful conversation takes a civil kind collaboration in 
self-control to have productive conversation. Some have done their poisonous 
work here with the communal well-spring.Collaboration? Could many folks dare at 
all to publicly disagree here on FFL anymore given the lack of self-restraint 
in the culture that remains on FFL? What is mostly missing now from the 
dominant FFL writing is a kindness to process, a love enough of collaboration 
that seems necessary enough for there to be creative thinking between people. 
Instead what we have is a culture of rudeness that has long interrupted the 
communal thinking here and driven people away.The cultural place that was FFL 
seems to have been poisoned. The place evidently has died for lack of a willing 
collaboration as an oxygen that could include other points of view other than 
some caustic character of dominant internet haters and personalities in method. 
The cost to FairfieldLife at Yahoo-groups has been the loss of a forum for 
communal thinking.A pervasive unkindness in ad hominem-istic snark parading as 
'intellectual retort', it's the dominant 'culture' here at FFL now, as the 
evident lack in thoughtful community culture here. Folks otherwise have come 
instead to fear to spend their time thinking here reading let alone posting 
here.  It is a sad commentary on how it has gone down for FFL. Many of the 
writers left here have in many ways become the people they revile, bullies like 
they see Bevan or others in the movement community.Salon, saloon or shalom; who 
would enter in to a place met with the likes of, “You Suck..” or “Fuck you” as 
first text lines or “You lying Fuck” as a subject heading? MJ, there was a long 
period of a poisonous malignancy here in the postings between a few people who 
came on before you came along and added to it in your way. FFL is just not a 
safe place for well-meaning people to loiter or join in hence most folks 
wandered out. Meditators and people around Fairfield here always go 'whew-phew' 
and roll their eyes about the reputation of FFL as a place for thoughtful 
dialogue whence FFL gets mentioned. FFL got wrecked a while ago as a community 
place that way. mjackson74 wrote, well Buck how do you account for the

 For context, this third book has the following quotes:
 

 “As a result of scientific research conducted during the past decade(s) on 
Transcendental Meditation, the practical aspect of the Science of Creative 
Intelligence, at more than two hundred universities and research institutes in 
different countries, including Germany, England, Canada, United States,

businessmen, organizations, and individuals, and as a result of his successful 
world-wide activities, His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, founder of the 
Science of Creative Intelligence, through the window of science, saw the coming 
dawn of the Age of Enlightenment and inaugurated it for the whole world in 
Switzerland on 12 January 1975” 
 

 Text transcribed from the 1975 book:
 “. .Through the window of Science we see the Dawn of the Age of Enlightenment.
 

 Good time for the world is coming. Now, a few people in any country will be 
able to change the destiny of their nation for all good.
 

 One percent of the population will be sufficient to design the direction of 
time for all happiness, progress, and fulfillment everywhere.
 

 I see the dawn of the Age of Enlightenment.
 

 In this scientific age, it is no longer necessary for any nation to continue 
living with problems.
 

 This is the time of the dawn of the Age of Enlightenment. I am only giving 
expression to the phenomenon that is taking place.
 

 One percent of the people in any country can herald the dawn of a new age for 
the whole nation by devoting only fifteen minutes of their time twice a day.
 

 With such a little demand for such a great offer it is not conceivable that 
the world will go any longer in the footsteps of suffering.
 

 It is in the hands of a few individuals in every country today to change the 
direction of time and guide the destiny of their nation for all harmony, 
happiness, and progress.
 

 It is my joy to invite everyone to come in the light of the knowledge and 
experience that the Science of Creative Intelligence provides and enjoy 
participating in this global awakening to herald the Age of Enlightenment.

 Whatever your reasons for doing this, congratulations! 

Thanks I fully accept this praise. It is conscious, but also involuntary in 
some sense, automatic, to see if it is possible. 

Judy *almost* managed a fairly clean exit from this place, leaving without a 
word of explanation and thus leaving behind a mystery. People could have been 
lulled by that seeming mystery into believing that she was making a new start 
or trying to become something different than she had been for years, or do 
something else that was...uh...actually positive. 

Yep, why not DO something, instead of just talk, talk, talk. You are active, 
doing something constructive in your life, and so do I - you know about that. 
So we blasted that 'mystery'. Though I think that mystery was never really 
planned by her, it was in all likelihood a physical necessity - which she is 
probably too embarrased to share with us. Her decline, also due to old age, was 
foreseeable. And it is a real blessing, that it is not actually working out in 
front of us all, we just got a little glimpse of it.
 

 By falling for your troll, she eliminated the possibility of that ever 
happening. In 9 short posts she revealed that instead of making some kind of 
new start and making some kind of spiritual progress away from FFL, SHE NEVER 
EVEN LEFT. She's been reading it compulsively, every day for ten months. 

 
One of my credos comes from cinematograpy: Don't say, show! Nobody can really 
prove how stupid he is, than a fool himself. Just let him act out. In this 
case, I do feel compassion with her, because she looked sooo bad! 


 We know this because she tried to make *her* version of the Lemming Rush to 
The_Leak into the definitive This-Is-The-Truth-Because-Judy-Says-It-Is 
version. We know that in the past she has berated people for spotty reading 
and claimed that they could not *possibly* know the truth about things that 
happen on FFL if they don't read every post the way she does, so we know that 
to make such a claim as to know exactly what happened with The_Leak exodus, 
she was reading every post. As I've suggested a couple of times, that is almost 
too pathetic to be commented on -- Judy Stein, mysteriously disappearing from 
FFL, but in reality glued to her screen reading every post, every day, because 
she's that addicted to it. 

 

 By falling for your troll, and then ranting about me, Salyavin and you the way 
she did, she also blew away any notion that anyone could have had that she'd 
moved on or somehow outgrown the hatred she was known for here for so many 
years. Not only is the hatred still there, it's worse than ever -- she's 
actually MORE angry and frustrated now after not interacting with us for ten 
months than she was before. 

Now this is really interesiting: how many people thought, in fact, that 'she 
has moved on'. There was always the possibility of a physical demise, or 
ailment, but it seems, that many, even true blue TMers (which she always was) 
believed, that she had a change of heart, that finally, she didn't post here 
anymore, because, she found her new beliefs not in allignment with her old 
ones, that some kind of lurking, underground conflict with the TM at large had 
resurfaced, and I feel that many would have seen this as a kind of progress, or 
at least some kind of liberation from her current mental prison. 

Because, if somebody like her, is so obsessive over the years, with a certain 
topic, TM, the TM technique and it's fundamental theory, she was not just 
obsessed with you and me, and isn't it largely interchangebale, all kinds of 
guys who came in the meantime, she obsessed about, a whole legacy of TM critics 
she was constantly chasing and obsessing about. How many have left here or at 
AMT because of her? What an honor that in her final replic here, my name 
appeared next to yours, but of course, our names are just placeholders for so 
many others.

This attachment and obsessiveness, wouldn't we all have subconsciously wished 
for her, that in some kind of sublime moment of grace was broken, not only her 
obsession with FFL and the persons involved, but also, and even more 
fundamentaly her obsession with basic TM thinking and theory. To break this, 
almost anything would have been good enough, and at least it would have given 
you the illusion, that change is indeed possible. She destroyed this illusion, 
by returning here and acting out as expected.

 

 Finally, by claiming that The_Leak (with a grand total of 9 people posting to 
it) is healthy and thriving and stealing people away from FFL (with an average 
of 27 people posting to it) is just nuts. Those who had somehow managed to 
forget how tenous Judy's relationship with reality was during her absence has 
certainly been reminded of it now. In Judyworld, 8 people (Rick only posts 
spam) talking about inanities and how special they are in between obsessing 
about the terrible,

 The challenge of FFL as a forum community is to find constructive ways of 
engaging with people. That takes kindness, tolerance and patience as skillsets 
and practice to be able to think together and be creative, to look at and solve 
problems together. FFL is a long ways from that by a grip of vice of some folks 
who dominate FFL.Collaborating in 'Disconfirmation': seeking different ways of 
looking at models, of 'thinking' in constructive conflict.Thoughtful 
conversation seems a willing kind collaborative, a kind cooperative 'process in 
disconfirmation'. By contrast a trust in kindness as element has been driven 
out of Fairfieldlife at Yahoo-groups by a dominant methodical use of personal 
invective in the ad hominem used as weapon to personally hurt people 
here.Collaboration in a type of, Love? In kindness to a creative process?Quite 
evidently thoughtful conversation takes a civil kind collaboration in 
self-control to have productive conversation. Some have done their poisonous 
work here with the communal well-spring.Collaboration? Could many folks dare at 
all to publicly disagree here on FFL anymore given the lack of self-restraint 
in the culture that remains on FFL? What is mostly missing now from the 
dominant FFL writing is a kindness to process, a love enough of collaboration 
that seems necessary enough for there to be creative thinking between people. 
Instead what we have is a culture of rudeness that has long interrupted the 
communal thinking here and driven people away.The cultural place that was FFL 
seems to have been poisoned. The place evidently has died for lack of a willing 
collaboration as an oxygen that could include other points of view other than 
some caustic character of dominant internet haters and personalities in method. 
The cost to FairfieldLife at Yahoo-groups has been the loss of a forum for 
communal thinking.A pervasive unkindness in ad hominem-istic snark parading as 
'intellectual retort', it's the dominant 'culture' here at FFL now, as the 
evident lack in thoughtful community culture here. Folks otherwise have come 
instead to fear to spend their time thinking here reading let alone posting 
here.  It is a sad commentary on how it has gone down for FFL. Many of the 
writers left here have in many ways become the people they revile, bullies like 
they see Bevan or others in the movement community.Salon, saloon or shalom; who 
would enter in to a place met with the likes of, “You Suck..” or “Fuck you” as 
first text lines or “You lying Fuck” as a subject heading? MJ, there was a long 
period of a poisonous malignancy here in the postings between a few people who 
came on before you came along and added to it in your way. FFL is just not a

unless Alex wants to tell us what is going on with the movement.

The TM teachers here walked away.  

All the TM Teachers who have not been re-certified are kicked out. That

They weren't kicked out. 

Kicked out for a number of reasons: They failed to reach enlightenment in 5-7 
years; nobody produced a single enlightened student in four decades; they 
sucked as spiritual teachers, making stuff up.

 Whatever your reasons for doing this, congratulations! 

Thanks I fully accept this praise. It is conscious, but also involuntary in 
some sense, automatic, to see if it is possible. 

Judy *almost* managed a fairly clean exit from this place, leaving without a 
word of explanation and thus leaving behind a mystery. People could have been 
lulled by that seeming mystery into believing that she was making a new start 
or trying to become something different than she had been for years, or do 
something else that was...uh...actually positive. 

Yep, why not DO something, instead of just talk, talk, talk. You are active, 
doing something constructive in your life, and so do I - you know about that. 
So we blasted that 'mystery'. Though I think that mystery was never really 
planned by her, it was in all likelihood a physical necessity - which she is 
probably too embarrased to share with us. Her decline, also due to old age, was 
foreseeable. And it is a real blessing, that it is not actually working out in 
front of us all, we just got a little glimpse of it.
 

 By falling for your troll, she eliminated the possibility of that ever 
happening. In 9 short posts she revealed that instead of making some kind of 
new start and making some kind of spiritual progress away from FFL, SHE NEVER 
EVEN LEFT. She's been reading it compulsively, every day for ten months. 

 
One of my credos comes from cinematograpy: Don't say, show! Nobody can really 
prove how stupid he is, than a fool himself. Just let him act out. In this 
case, I do feel compassion with her, because she looked sooo bad! 


 We know this because she tried to make *her* version of the Lemming Rush to 
The_Leak into the definitive This-Is-The-Truth-Because-Judy-Says-It-Is 
version. We know that in the past she has berated people for spotty reading 
and claimed that they could not *possibly* know the truth about things that 
happen on FFL if they don't read every post the way she does, so we know that 
to make such a claim as to know exactly what happened with The_Leak exodus, 
she was reading every post. As I've suggested a couple of times, that is almost 
too pathetic to be commented on -- Judy Stein, mysteriously disappearing from 
FFL, but in reality glued to her screen reading every post, every day, because 
she's that addicted to it. 

 

 By falling for your troll, and then ranting about me, Salyavin and you the way 
she did, she also blew away any notion that anyone could have had that she'd 
moved on or somehow outgrown the hatred she was known for here for so many 
years. Not only is the hatred still there, it's worse than ever -- she's 
actually MORE angry and frustrated now after not interacting with us for ten 
months than she was before. 

Now this is really interesiting: how many people thought, in fact, that 'she 
has moved on'. There was always the possibility of a physical demise, or 
ailment, but it seems, that many, even true blue TMers (which she always was) 
believed, that she had a change of heart, that finally, she didn't post here 
anymore, because, she found her new beliefs not in allignment with her old 
ones, that some kind of lurking, underground conflict with the TM at large had 
resurfaced, and I feel that many would have seen this as a kind of progress, or 
at least some kind of liberation from her current mental prison. 

Because, if somebody like her, is so obsessive over the years, with a certain 
topic, TM, the TM technique and it's fundamental theory, she was not just 
obsessed with you and me, and isn't it largely interchangebale, all kinds of 
guys who came in the meantime, she obsessed about, a whole legacy of TM critics 
she was constantly chasing and obsessing about. How many have left here or at 
AMT because of her? What an honor that in her final replic here, my name 
appeared next to yours, but of course, our names are just placeholders for so 
many others.

This attachment and obsessiveness, wouldn't we all have subconsciously wished 
for her, that in some kind of sublime moment of grace was broken, not only her 
obsession with FFL and the persons involved, but also, and even more 
fundamentaly her obsession with basic TM thinking and theory. To break this, 
almost anything would have been good enough, and at least it would have given 
you the illusion, that change is indeed possible. She destroyed this illusion, 
by returning here and acting out as expected.

 

 Finally, by claiming that The_Leak (with a grand total of 9 people posting to 
it) is healthy and thriving and

 Good old Lawson! I admire his energy, the dude's on fire on that thread. He's 
like a Lone Ranger on the world's comment sections, he crops up all over the

 I used to do it too of course. Many many moons ago I had some highly

 So, who would you believe? A large group of people standing on the corner who 
all said a big blue bus just drove by.

Or, a guy standing on the same corner who said no blue bus drove by.

Transcendental meditation (TM) has been having a renaissance in recent years: 
Celebrities, businesspeople, and regular folk are practicing it in record 
numbers.

According to Forbes ...meditation of almost any description leads to a relaxed 
wakefulness, and should generate alpha waves in the brain – that, he says, is 
not so specific to TM.

Apparently you still practice TM, if we can believe what you posted to FFL

Many many moons ago I had some highly embarrassing conversations wherein people 
trashed my POV about yogic flying and group coherence and my defence of the

So, after sponging off the movement for a decade they finally kicked you out of 
the TM center so now you're going to throw all of your old friends under the 
bus. Go figure.

You have a web footprint that is pretty cringeworthy already. You don't even

OK 

 What do you thing about the statement: 'There is no God'.
 

 What does that mean for you? Do you think it true or false? What do you feel 
about those who hold this statement to be true? For in the past you seem to 
hold this word as having significant meaning for yourself.
 

 As a fact, I would hold that statement as highly probably true, based on how I 
perceive those who use the world 'God' appear to define this term. That word 
has a long, complex history fraught with emotion for most people, though I 
regard it with very strong neutrality emotionally.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: List Culture and The FFL Post Count

2015-04-28 Thread TurquoiseBee turquoi...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife]
Whatever your reasons for doing this, congratulations! Judy *almost* managed a 
fairly clean exit from this place, leaving without a word of explanation and 
thus leaving behind a mystery. People could have been lulled by that seeming 
mystery into believing that she was making a new start or trying to become 
something different than she had been for years, or do something else that 
was...uh...actually positive. 

By falling for your troll, she eliminated the possibility of that ever 
happening. In 9 short posts she revealed that instead of making some kind of 
new start and making some kind of spiritual progress away from FFL, SHE NEVER 
EVEN LEFT. She's been reading it compulsively, every day for ten months. 

We know this because she tried to make *her* version of the Lemming Rush to 
The_Leak into the definitive This-Is-The-Truth-Because-Judy-Says-It-Is 
version. We know that in the past she has berated people for spotty reading 
and claimed that they could not *possibly* know the truth about things that 
happen on FFL if they don't read every post the way she does, so we know that 
to make such a claim as to know exactly what happened with The_Leak exodus, 
she was reading every post. As I've suggested a couple of times, that is almost 
too pathetic to be commented on -- Judy Stein, mysteriously disappearing from 
FFL, but in reality glued to her screen reading every post, every day, because 
she's that addicted to it. 

By falling for your troll, and then ranting about me, Salyavin and you the way 
she did, she also blew away any notion that anyone could have had that she'd 
moved on or somehow outgrown the hatred she was known for here for so many 
years. Not only is the hatred still there, it's worse than ever -- she's 
actually MORE angry and frustrated now after not interacting with us for ten 
months than she was before. 

Finally, by claiming that The_Leak (with a grand total of 9 people posting to 
it) is healthy and thriving and stealing people away from FFL (with an average 
of 27 people posting to it) is just nuts. Those who had somehow managed to 
forget how tenous Judy's relationship with reality was during her absence has 
certainly been reminded of it now. In Judyworld, 8 people (Rick only posts 
spam) talking about inanities and how special they are in between obsessing 
about the terrible, horrible thugs who drove them away from FFL is a success. 
Whereas the often-interesting mix of conversations on FFL among over three 
times that number of people means that it's devolved into a smoking ruin. 
That's proof positive that Judy's once-sharp mind has degraded to mush during 
the months she's spent with her eyes glued to the screen reading every post 
made to FFL but feeling superior because she doesn't reply to them. 

Until now. Invisible, lurking in the background where no one could see her, 
Judy could still imagine that she was actually revered by some on FFL. But by 
falling into your trap, she blew that completely, and in only 9 posts. 

She *rendered herself a joke*. Now, because the only fans and ass-kissers she 
had left have all fled to The_Leak, she's got no one left here on FFL who still 
believes in the image she tried to create. She couldn't resist doing a 
drive-by, and now everyone else is laughing at her as the joke she is. When she 
falls for the NEXT provocation and comes back for her NEXT drive-by, everyone 
will know even more how much of a joke she is, and read what she writes only as 
a means to get to the punchline sooner. 

What a debacle. What a failure. And all because she couldn't stand someone 
pointing how how little contact she actually had with the cult she's 
obsessively defended as a cult apologist for over twenty years. 

I'm only sorry that Curtis and Vaj aren't around to see how far she's fallen, 
and what a laughingstock she's made of herself...

Answer:
Wrong! I was well aware that you could be reading it, that you could be 
lurking. There was a good possibility for that, and there is always a chance to 
test the grounds - that's a given. Ann had told us that no fatal accident had 
occured, that you were well. What I wrote was, to about 65% directed to people 
who knew me from before here, also to give them a clue to who I am, and to 35% 
it was a conscious and direct provocation, to test grounds, to see if I could 
trick you out of your hiding place. You forgot that we pulled off this number

with a similar post, I tricked Robin back to FFL, simply by posting a link to 
his Ayatollah comment, which you liked so much. 

I already formulated my opinion about you, triggered by some driveby 
invocations from peaksters, in a post two days before, but somehow this didn't 
got sent. So I made a new attempt and embedded it in another larger post. 
Obviously that worked. And what I wrote to Buck was 100% honest and true. Yes, 
I employed sarcasm and satire, yes I was provocative. But I didn't think there 
were people so stupid not to recognize it. You surely remember your own 
unspontaneous and pathetic attempts at satire in collaboration with Robin.

 That would be good news, it does make me wonder why nobody else has thought of 
it though. Unless they just don't like visiting smelly planets like Earth. Or 
unless there is nobody else...
 

 What worries me is that I can't find anything about it anywhere other than 
this IGN site and I haven't been able to work out what IGN stands for 
(International Gaming Network maybe?)
 

 But if it's true and they need a test pilot, I'm yer man. Time travel is so 
cool...
