Guy meets himself in the future
 

Definitely very interesting but I'm still a little skeptical.

Neat...

There is one way to prove it happened and that is to be there when he arrives in the future.

That's what I'm thinking. If he was in the future, why not get a time and date from his older self? If he did have a long conversation with himself, couldn't he have gotten more information on the intervening years, or at least something more concrete than that his older incarnation 'looked about 70?'

Personally, I think the old version of him will turn out to be a thinly veiled metaphor for Jesus.

thats his proof a tattoo that is the same?

why not just say hey future self...can i see your car? or flying car i need to take a picture of it...

Unless the people in the future were taking extreme precautions not to be seen, would not the younger guy have seen all those scientists and instruments whirring, buzzing, beeping, jeeping, and creeping? :rolleyes:

But at least we know two places where the understanding of time and space break down: one, beyond the event horizon of a singularity, and two, this guy's kitchen.

I would not even believe it if it happened to me. Regardless of any proof I had.

How about go to the local library, get some microfilm of a few world newspapers from December 25, 2008? Put it in a sealed envelope and give it to the Smithsonian Institute with the stipulation that it be opened on the day before.

That might convince someone.

BS.

The tattoo on the "older version" looks too dark. After 50+ years, that shit would fade away.

(not a very good arguement)

One big question came to mind for me: How did he get back?

it's like frickin' 2001 A Space Odyssey. All that's missing is the monolith.

As a scientific minded individual I am always skeptical so until I meet my future self I'm a disbeliever. It would be pretty wild though huh?!?

I'm very skeptical, but whether it's true or not, it makes a great story.
