Need Help Building a time machine?

I know a lot of people don't believe in time travel..fine. But, maybe most people are going about it the wrong way. I want to try an experiment that will tell us if time travel is possible. Here's what I want the participants to do: Write yourself a note and include the current date and time and the URL to this post. Keep the note in your wallet. Then, if time travel is invented in the future, just go back to the moment you read this post and tell us how it's done.

Who knows, if you take this post seriously you might meet your future self in a few minutes. Wouldn't that be cool! C'mon try it!

    Has your future self visited you yet? That is proof that time travel backwards is never achieved.

    Someone would have brought the know-how backward far enough that YOU would have gotten the opportunity to travel back and talk to yourself. The fact that you're asking this question proves that it will never happen.
