What would you do

If you had 20 million dollars, would
you settle down in Beverly Hills ?

If you could travel through time, where
would you go and what would you do?

Well, as I come up for air after my four-day take home final, this has been the most entertaining friam post! The comments in the time travel post are fascinating. Just as the space complexity classes in computational complexity show that you can re-use space but not time, I gotta say time is more interesting than money!

Easy. Head for the Omega Point. Which of course contains all possible answers to the question "if you could travel through time, where would you go and what would you do?".

Except I thought that with dark energy, the Big Crunch (required for an Omega Point) has been largely discredited.

No - that's only what the simulation in the universal computer wants you to think -- R
