    Picard...sorry I've been away....but to answer your question:

    I'd like to meet these people BEFORE they were famous.....like back when they were in high school or beginning college.....back when they were in a garage band....back when they wore purple capes....

    I'd approach them like I approach "normal" folks...the way I approach anybody now....smile and say hello and start a conversation about whatever is going on at the moment.

    I guess I'd go back about forty five years or so and
    kick myself in the ass for being such a dumb shit.

    Take care.

    I COULD do that BUT...

    I was so stupid back then that I didn't listen to anybody...and most likely would ignore my older self...plus kicking myself would only make me paranoid for the rest of my life....thinking....great, now I've screwed up and again and probably will come back any minute now to kick myself....and then I'd try to hide and this whole paranoia thing will just take a life of its own....etc. etc....

    Where would I go ?

    I would go 1400 years back into the past.

    Maybe I could visit Merlin.


    Why so far:
    Because inquisition had not yet started and I would not be endangered to be burned alive at that time.

    Never would I go to the 14th, 15th or 16th century.

    i would probally go back and win the lottery then put it in the bank then come back to the present. or i would go back to the 20's with a modern P.C or some sort of technology and see what the effect would be.

    Be aware that it would be very difficult to buy exactly that lottery ticket which willl win in the future. Where would you search for it ?

    Lotto would work better ...

    On the other hand, any time travel, like lotto number inquiry in the future, which you would do only for your own profit, is prohibited and you would be tracked and caught by the timetravel control police ...

    God.

    God is there, keeps running the pulsatory "big bang" mechanism,
    maybe at another level above all universes,

    and maybe he never interferes, because he thinks it's more appropriate and interesting to let intelligent civilizations in the universes do their job alone,
    with all good and all bad effects this can have ...
