My newest time travel machine is complete. What I've done is I've bought an old Missile Chasers ride like that had at Six Flags when I was a kid. I also bought several used 707 jet engines and have welded each one to each car of the Missile Chasers. All that super fast twirling means I should very easily be able to go back in time and calculate the date and time within about a month. It also means there are other seats in the time machine to fill, so let me know if you're interested.

Here are the missions I'm considering. Vote on whichever one you think would be best.

A. Go back to 1912 and prevent the Titanic from sinking.
B. Go back to 1963 and prevent JFK from getting assassinated.
C. Go back to 1978 and tell Tom Landry he needs to draft Joe Montana, Ronnie Lott, and Lawrence Taylor.
D. Go back to 1925 Germany to prevent the NSDAP from coming to power and thus prevent WW II and related terrible events from ever happening.
E. Go back to pre-biotic Earth and engineer all upcoming life to evolve as silicone-based instead of carbon-based.

Vote on whichever one you think is most important. Whichever one wins, I'll do that. Thanks.

B. And it’s not even close. Half my family would have never been murdered by a corrupt Cabal of politicians either....

F. Go back in time to go to the Library of Alexandria before it burned to find out just how big and what was in the "Adult Hieroglyphics" section. Save as much as you can.

Being a history major and an overall awesome guy :rolleyes: I’ll play along Reverend. As another poster has said, rewriting history changes the future so it would be a very dangerous thing to do, no matter the atrocities. Regardless, for the fun of it...

I’ll say no to (E) right off the bat because I don’t like science.
I would say no to (C), I don’t care about sports history, I care about the here and now with sports.
I would then say no to (B), JFK was a piece of trash who preyed on young women, committed adultery and did many other things that are pet peeves of mine and I consider despicable. IMOF, I believe he got what was coming to him :eek:
Then I’ll say no to (A), although it was an absolute travesty it didn’t have near the effect on lives as D.

So...my final answer is D. Millions of lives were not only lost but effected. Obviously the Jewish population but several million people from other countries as well, soldiers and civilians alike. It’s estimated the Russians lost ~27 million people (civilians and soldiers) IIRC during WWII alone. Then you have the atomic bombs, Pearl Harbor, the bombing of London...the list goes on and on. Without a doubt, if you could prevent WWII that is the best choice IMO. I would give up my own life in a second to prevent the millions of innocent lives lost during that war. On the other hand, if I was in that war and got my hands on a “German soldier during WWII” I would make the Inglorious *******s bat scene look like childs play, war crimes be damned.
