Time traveling machine

**Frisbinator** · 10-27-05, 03:53 PM

You can travel to any point in history, human or otherwise, that you want. But you must live there....forever. You would also magically know the language. So, to where and when do you want to travel, time traveller? Be careful on how you respond....because after responding, you MIGHT just find yourself at that very spot and time.....

Ooh, that's easy for me ........late 1700s-early 1800s, on the great plains of America, and, hopefully, a member of the Southern Cheyenne tribes.

The men rode horses, hunted and fished, and relaxed by the fire ....while the women did all the work!

No time like the present.

Too much disease and too many wars going on in the past.

the later years of the Roman empire. my job would be to keep the empire from crumbling under invading germanic forces. in doing this i would attempt to prevent the dark ages.

My answer is similar to Max's, but earlier.
America (either great plains, or Pacific Northwest) but at least 200 years prior the Spanish invasion.

No, I mean specifically Britain just after the napoleonic wars, between 1816 and 1848.

Why then?
It was a time of horrible mistreatment of people, wars, hunger and abject poverty, wasn't it?

According to FreeTranslation.com (which isn't very accurate, but helps to give the jist of something by translating it like someone who is just learning English), it means...

I would want to travel above the built everest and remain there during some days.

**Nysse** · 10-29-05, 10:15 PM

I don't know what or where that is.

Well, it is a place, obviously...
And it is in Ireland.

What was going on there 5000 years ago?

A civilisation.

That's really helpful.

What is appealing about it?
Why did you chose that place and time?

The location, and the simplicity of their lives.
I'm not saying they didn't work hard, life was just simpler.

Because it would be a beautiful place to live.
And because after that time it was pretty much swallowed up by bog.

Why did you choose the great plains, or the Pacific Northwest of America at least 200 years prior to the Spanish invasion?
