Science fiction loves to plunge itself into all the hypothetical issues for the "future" of travelling back in time and altering events.

If you could travel back in time just one week and change something [without causing catastrophic sc-fi plot convolutions] ~ in your private life or in the public sphere, anywhere ~ what things might you choose to do?

The RHP (More) Inclusive Oscars Original post by FMF "on 23 Jan '16 12:07"

Since January 23, 2016, until today March 16, 2016 or fifty three days (8 + 29 + 16 = 53) you have posted a total of seventy nine (79) threads in Red Hot Pawn's General Forum for an average of 1.49 threads per day. As one of your fans, I'd encourage you to increase your contribution of these unique threads to at least two and a half 2.5 by April Fool's Day (4/1/16). On behalf of all veterans and new site members, please accept our thanks for a job well done.

Are we allowed to go back in time and assassinate thread hijackers?

Delighted to see you changing your mind about FMF's contribution to the General Forum. I presume this is your "time travelling" change you would make to your previously quite bitter and unedifying attitude to FMF. Well done.

I'd need way more than a week.

But if one week was the max I could go back, I wouldn't bother. There's nothing I've done in the past week I wouldn't do again. Remorse sucks, and so I avoid doing things I'd be remorseful for. Call it a character flaw if you must.

As Long as it is not "catastrophic" as I understand the OP.

Question If I couldl go back one week, can I go back another from there := ?

Only if your Fairy Godmother allows you to wish for 3 more wishes.

I would park my car where that tree branch wouldn't fall on it and crack the windshield. $250 bucks! 😕

I would travel back in time to the grassy knoll (Dallas) with a second movie camera running.
