Iranian Scientist Invents Time Machine

Never let it be said that I am not on the ball with my finger on the pulse when it comes to useful inventions (cylon toaster, Dr Who hoover etc)

This guy says he has invented a time machine that can see into the future about 5-8 years. He's registered it with the, smart sounding, Iranian Centre for Strategic Inventions. It only cost him about $400 in parts and chewing gum. He says it doesn't exactly take you into the future, like the TARDIS, but rather tells you what is going to happen to you after you touch it.

Maybe he installs it in his pants and then I can 100% tell you what will happen after you touch it.

He says he is only really using it for telling folk the sex of their unborn child (50% chance of getting it right anyway) but potentially it's a bit of a money spinner for governments, apparently.

He says he's not going to release it to the market now, because he's afraid the bastard Chinese will produce a cheap knock off and flood the market. Ahhh...a bit of a financial wizkid huh?

I don't think he's going to do a kickstarter for it but you never know........

Here's the link I built a TARDIS, sort of

So a government sees into the future and it tells them of a potential hazard.

They prepare for the hazard and thus avoid it.

What happened to the future?

Stop confusing everybody with your scientific jibba jabba. I for one, welcome the ability to see if Up Front ever gets a reprint.

What with North Korean scientists making the biological discovery of the century, about 6 months ago, by announcing they had discovered a Unicorn's nest, one wonders how these nations have enough time to make nuclear bombs.

This is like 5 month old news, mate.

So what, I don't remember anyone alerting me about it 5 months ago. Seems like you dropped the ball there on such a momentous topic, Pete.

This guy is not a scientist in any of the state institutes. He's a director of made up quack institute of which there are plenty in the US or UK. Not much different than homeopaths or creationists. News at 11 - idiots and attention seekers are everywhere.

How outrageous to even suggest that there are such things as 'quack' institutes and 'quack' scientists in Iran or the UK or US.

We all know homeopathy is Gods gift to the world and crosses all cultural divides. I love me a glass of water with a memory. Its short term memory is probably better than mine!

I assume you wouldn't even think of accusing Dr Who of being a 'quack' scientist because he would fuck your shit up, Dalek style.

"Homeopathic" eastern medicine such as accupuncture has been around long before western medicine, and in many cases, is effective. Cures for cancer? Not so much.

There's room for creation and evolution, too. Until someone can prove to me where a point of infinite density and heat just appeared from, that singularity that exploded into what we know to be the universe, then I'm going to go with "And He said, let there be light".

Yeah, with all that sand out there, making a REALLY curved piece of glass is probably cheap. I knew this chick named Lisa whose glasses were so thick when I tried them on I immediately saw the room as it would be the following week.
