I can be sitting in the white house tea room on Ilkley Moor and drinking Yorkshire tea at 50 pence a pot in less then .00001 ^-1 billion seconds

I have no delays or technological problems to report after over 100,000 such trips and travel sickness has never been an issue. Insect repellent etc is not needed and jet lag is just something that happens to other people.

I am

I looked at my tax bill and decided to move to a time and country before the tax liability was incurred.

I brought my wad and my cats with me of course but my wife was at work so I had to leave her behind

It's also good for the carpets because I have now come back to a time before the cats dropped fur on my carpet and so the carpets are perfectly clean. The house is also in a different country so no US property taxes are due.

Imagine the electricity savings (carpet cleaning machines) should this technology become licensed for those of mere human capabilities currently

huh bloody light speed - get them rocks off is what I say
