hmm. Interesting, Let's look at what we have, we have 4 dimensions out of wich 3 we have the sensory perception to sense to a certain degree.
Time howerver is the fourth dimesion that we have nothing but a strictly abstract sense of. The first thing we should ask us is if we can somehow alter the three others before we go for the one we know least about.
My guess is that timetravel will never be possible in a practical sense, thoratically perhaps but never practically.

Even if we mannage to find a way to travel back in time we have to find a way to nullify the effects of the paradox of existing in the wrong time. Somehow i think that the universe would either not allow the timetravel to take place or that the entity that traveld back in time would be either disintegrated or pushed back to it's original timeframe.

The idea of transfering a body outside the ordinary nature of time is facinating but practically could be very dangerous. Dangerous not only to the traveler but to the rest of the universe aswell.. What happends with the universe when a paradox occurs? Can we be so sure that the universe can tolerate a breach of one of it's basic fundaments?
