As I promised, I shall now continue my post on 'Time Travel', and put out more mind-boggling questions about this phenomenon.

Now, I'm pretty sure most of you have heard of Hiro Nakamura, the Japanese 'superhero' from the TV series "Heroes", and there are many things that I'm not sure about his power to time travel. When Hiro time travels, his current body disappears from the present, and time goes on. To elaborate further : When Hiro travels to the past, the present still goes on without him, it is as if he had been removed from existence, until he comes back. So if thats the case, if Hiro were to travel 2 minutes into the past, and tell the 'past Hiro' not to do the same, there would be 2 Hiro's right? But then again, there would be zero Hiro's (heh, that rhymes) 2 minutes into the future. How does that work? Which means that 2-minutes-into-the-future Ando (Hiro's best friend), would be without a friend, while 2-minutes-into-the-past Ando, would have 2 best friends right? That would be like cloning people. Not only that, but you'd be creating a whole different dimension. Think about it.

Now, if let's say I were to go travel into the past, and the present would still continue going on without me, what would happen if I were to start carving my name into the walls of the Leaning Tower of Pisa, would it happen at the same rate in the future? As in, would you be able to see the the carvings the same time I'm carving it? So if that's the case, if I were to travel 2 minutes into the past and write something on your class whiteboard, you'd be able to see writings just appear on the whiteboard as I write it right? Now wouldn't that be scary?

There are just so many things that are left out while explaining, or portraying time travel, that one just stops to think about these things, like me. I've always wanted to go back in time, change something, erase a stupid mistake. But as I think about doing that, I also wonder what would happen to the future, or the present if I do so. And this concludes my post on time-travel.

Most of you are going to read this and think about the same things I do, the wonders of time travel, the many types of time travel, and the effects of time travel. Or you're going to go : "What?!".. So I only have a few words to say to you : My mind wonders, sue me.
