I know where straight face would go. He would go back in time to probably this past thursday and explain to his cleaning lady that she is not to be handling his shaving gear.:)

Time travel is such an interesting concept...and such a commonplace one in science fiction today. Does anyone know where the idea came from? Was Wells the first to think of it, or is anyone aware of earlier references?
I disapprove of this use of the term. Technically there is truth in it, but it is equivocating because what we mean when we say 'time travel to the future' is removing ourselves from our current frame of reference and going to a different one far in advance of where/when we are. For this same reason advancing our progress through time via time dilation is also a bit misleading.
I don't see why.
By using relativity to move forward in time, we are removing ourselves from the bystanders frame of reference, and moving to a point forward in his frame of reference, using less time than they themselves needed to get there.
Removing ourselves completely would take us out of existence and so far that is not a realistic option. It's theoretically possible via a wormhole, but noone has been able to come up with a set of conditions that would allow matter to come out intact, let alone alive.
I'd like to go back and see a talking bush that's on fire, or the trickster who figured out how to throw his voice in 1250 BCE. All signs point to Aaron.
Ahhh, the bush. Remember the singing bush in, "The Three Amigo's"
