Now I am a fan of science but believe we would be wise to have a healthy scepticism especially as what we know or believe has been proven scientifically is changing all the time.. one minute something is so, then they realise the test was flawed....and now Y is true... One that stands out to me is the one where neuroscience tried to prove that men are less empathic than women... they used dead salmon to determine whether male and female brains reacted differently... In another experiment they used dead humans, or all males, or only 4 subjects etc... Healthy scepticism rules I feel...http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/neuroskeptic/2009/09/16/fmri-gets-slap-in-the-face-with-a-dead-fish/#.WNQMPm_yjiw less

Sounds kinda scary. The movie "Charley" was about that very thing. That movie has stayed with me for many decades. It was based on a scifi short story titled "Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes. Unless you already are taking them, would you be willing to try it and see what happens? I expect it is very expensive. Anyone know?

Of which, there are 3 main theories:1 - It is impossible to create a time paradox. "Time" won't let you change events.2 - A time paradox would create an alternate time line. Maybe they would merge later, maybe not.3 - A time paradox would create a time loop, and only an external factor could end the loop. Which gets them asking how big the loop would be, and who would be affected by it. (EG: just the person/people directly involved? The whole planet? The solar system? The galaxy? The universe?) The larger the area of the loop, the larger the external variable has to be to end it.And what if the governmen... less
