    That’s what I think is so neat about time travel. As a rational concept it’s so outlandish and ridiculously unlikely. Everything we know about physics says “Nope.”

    But the concept to the human imagination seems to be such a natural and easy to grasp fantasy.

    Perhaps borne from our desire to fix mistakes, prevent tragedies, and “be in the right place at the right time.”

    On the simplest level we learn best through our mistakes, but wish dearly we could hang on to that knowledge while hitting “Ctrl + Z” on the consequences.
