	The Edge of I-Hacked » The Time Traveler Convention - May 7, 2005
		Time travelers from all eras could meet at a specific place at a specific time, and they could make as many repeat visits as they wanted.
		A note: Time travel is a hard problem, and it may not be invented until long after MIT has faded into oblivion.
		If the time travelers don’t leave us their secrets, we won’t be able to go back in time and see our convention in all its glory unless it is publicized in advance.

	Time Travel Convention at BostonGeek
		Time travel, including into the past, remains a very real possibility under General Relativity — in fact, the very equations of relativity show us how it could be done, and Professor Mallett at the University of Connecticut is
		Time travel is, and has always been, the darling of fantasy-prone scientists and science-fiction authors.
		The first proof that General Relativity offers to indicate time travel is possible is a phenomenon called ‘time dilation’, in which objects moving at greater speeds seem to experience time more slowly to an observer on the ground.

	Becky's Thoughts: Time Traveler Convention
		I was searching for something to write for my Computer Resources and Information Management class by browsing Slashdot.org and came across an article about a Time Traveler Convention next Saturday (May 7, 2005) at MIT.
		"Technically, you would only need one time traveler convention." They are trying to publicize it as much as possible in as many enduring forms as possible, as the advertisements have to last for years to come.
		Time travel doesn't exist right now, but if the advertisements last and become widely known, then once it is invented, people may go back in time to attend the convention.

	The Time Traveler Convention - May 7, 2005
		Unfortunately, we had no confirmed time travelers visit us, yet many time travelers could have attended incognito to avoid endless questions about the future.

	The Time Traveler Convention
		There's a convention at MIT on May 7, 2005 at 10:00 pm EDT.
		If I was traveling back in time, I'd be much more interested in hanging out with the "time indigenous" locals, not other time travelers.
		Time travelers to Boston on May 7, 2005 will probably skip the convention.

		Actually, they contend that theirs is the only time traveler convention the world needs, because people from the future can travel to it anytime they want.
		At the convention, they plan to introduce a robot with an "infrared pyro-electric detector," designed to follow anything that emits heat, including humans.
		Dorai has precisely calculated that "the odds of a time traveler showing up are between one in a million and one in a trillion," organizers have tried to make things inviting.

	Time Traveler's Convention - The Other Side forums - suitable for mature readers!
		Since the high one was travelling fast compared to the ground, and the low one was going slower than an object at ground level, when matched up, the slow (travelling) one was further on the the fast (travelling) one.
		Time, in my understanding, is a spatial dimension, similar to left and right, or up and down, with the only special case being the direction of chaos, which causes events to tend toward disorder, and produces what we perceive as a "flow" of time.
		Maybe time travellers have visited us but the process unfortunately renders their memories completely blank, so not only can they tell us nothing about the future they are also can't remember how to get back there.

		Since travel through time is /also/ travel through space--well, it is if y6ou wanna land anywhere recognizable--then you're gonna need a lotta cash and a lotta gas stations along the way, no matter what kinda car you drive.

		You can't travel any further up or down into space than that which it is constructed in and perhaps you can't travel in time to a point before or after your time machine existed.
		People traveling back in time would have to be very careful not to disturb anything so as to put there era or themselves at risk.

		Several of them hold that it's possible to open a "portal" of sorts to bring people back to the time at which it was opened, but not to open one that goes back to a given point in the past, excepting times/places in which someone at that point opened one.

	Minding the Planet: Time Traveler Convention and Further Thoughts
		The organizers are inviting anyone in the future who is capable of time travel to travel back to the geo coordinates of this event (to be held at MIT) and attend it, along with proof that they are from the future.
		Or perhaps if they prove to us that time travel is possible at this moment in our evolution it might influence their timeline such that it could risk interfering with their past discovery of time travel or risk the technology ending up in the wrong hands in the future.
		While time travel by macroscopic things like people might be difficult or impossible due to the amount of energy required and the potential negative impact on the physical structure of the traveler, sending messages backwards in time could be more practical.

	Lou Huang: An Online Journal (Book Two): The Time Traveler
		Following some links, I found about John Titor, a purported time traveler from 2036 who traveled back in time to 2000 as part of a military operation.
		While Titor didn't want to provide solid names, dates, or even recognizable events (whether it was out of deference for the timeline, or because he was an elaborate hoax with no information to give), he hinted at a variety of conditions in society that, even in the year 2000, supposedly indicated an impending civil war.
		After looking at the unit he turned to me and said, "Either you've escaped from an insane asylum or you're a time traveler." As the weeks went on, it occurred to me that both were just as threatening and dangerous to him and I'm not sure he ever decided which one was worse.

		The convention's creator, Amal Dorai, says "The odds of a time traveler showing up are between one in a million and one in a trillion." Since time travelers can move backwards and forwards through time, the MIT convention may be the only one of its kind that will ever need to be held.
		Time travel:lol::lol::lol: What a joke it is impossible to travel forward in time sine it does not yet exist:duh::duh:
		Time travelers have plenty of notice, I mean if time travel isn't invented for another 1000 years, then they have at least 1000 years notice.

	Colossus of Rhode: Time Traveler Convention Report
		As for originality, as far as I know none of the TTC organizers had heard of Destination Day until after the Time Traveler Convention had been widely publicized and one of the Destination Day organizers wrote to say that they had already had a similar event.
		Some might say the success of an event should be measured by the people in attendance and the extent to which the world is made aware of it, rather than whether it happened to be the first of its kind.
		In the special case of time traveler events, who was first seems like it would be a particularly uninteresting way to decide which event to attend.
