      Once again, Kaniaz, your sarcasm is icing on the cake.

      Anyway...

      Shortly after, I read the original postings of John Titor, I found another message board where someone had posted a link to who he really was, and mentioned a name -- but the link was broken. I thought that it said his name was "Max Wurmple" or something like that. Did anybody else see this?

      That essay clinches it for me just as well, though! Thanks, sephiroth!

      I read about John Titor some time ago and didn't pay it much attention. The essay was fairly decent, but in at least one area where he talks about elements of a communist society and capitalist society not being able to fit together, it is old "cold war economic theory," and moreover completely ignores the real-world example of where a relatively free market economy (and all that goes with it, money, credit cards, bills, etc) exists inside of a communistic/communal structure -- China.

      I read a bunch of stuff on him one time. It's actually an interesting read, if you sit down and read it.

      Eh, playing devil's advocate for a moron here, but Titor could mean it was a socialist society. In a socialist society we have the government controlling prices and what not, and money still exists.

      But he was talking about having no government regulations to protect the value of money...

      Am I the only one who thinks that that essay did a terrible job of proving John Titor a hoax? It was anything but thorough. I'm not saying that Mr. Titor really is from the future, he's obviously nuts. But that essay sucked.

      Just ran over that essay again. Seems the man got confused with even himself when he tries to get into quantum physics, and how Titor's making 'paradoxes' and such. Could be a slight possibility that Titor himself doesn't exactly know what's really going on with his "machine".

      Not surprisingly, he would probably only be taught how to use it, not every aspect of the physics behind it. Why would GE reveal the secrets of time travel to everyone?

      True, the essay wasn't overly good. Or even good at all. Ideally, he should have focused much more on the evidence found revealing John Titor's agreements with the owner of the forum regarding the final movie involving John going back to his own time and whatnot.
