Time Travel

The other day someone asked me what would be the one crazy invention that i would really love to come true and my instant answer was Teleportation...wouldn't it be lovely to be able to get to places without having to travel...no more terrible flights or buses or anything...absolute bliss...

But now i feel that perhaps time travel would be great...Not just because i want to visit lands of the past (though i would love to live through ancient egypt, and live in the time that jane austen books are set in) or even because i have a great desire to see the world 200 years from now...but more because sometimes life feels like such a drag...

What if you could skip parts of your life and just you know...get it over with...

If time was constant and it is us who pass through it step by step, what if I could skip and hop a bit through the bits I didnt like?

And maybe rewind and relive moments that defined you because though they remain in your memory, you can never really remember how you felt when it happened...

Wouldn't it be lovely?

With you on this one!!! Yep was always a fan of teleportation since I saw it on Star Trek back in the day...and ...apparently ANU scientists have done it! Sadly the physicist's view of teleportation has zilch all to do with 'travel' or 'transport' apparently its just the recreation of one 'particle' at another spot almost instantaneously ...*wail*!!!!
