Time traveller site...

Found this website www . johntitor . com on the net. It says this guy John Titor was a time traveller from 2036 who came back to our time to pick up some old computers or something and he made alot of posts about the future. Feel free to pick this apart.

Sheppard said he thinks the time machine in the diagram looks like an air conditioner, so bonus points to anybody who knows what it's REALLY a picture of.

Well, General Electric has a C204 Three-Pole, Three-Phase Magnetic Contactor. I think it's for controlling relays, but I'm not sure.

He said we'd put a man in orbit between between 2001 and 2036. Well...no shit.

I like how the author of the site pretends to be skeptic, but in actuallit isn't.

.. Who the fuck cares? The guy isn't a time traveller, the only value his site has is as entertainment, like other future prediction website (here for instance)

Titor? What the fuck kind of name is Titor? Guess naming conventions will change a bit by 2003.

Locking at picture of the time machine...

Nice cross-section diagram from the service manual for a GENERAL ELECTRIC A02B-0072-C204 Power Amplifier/Connector Panel

Am I the only one that thinks to look up part numbers?

That's some weird shit,though something leads me to believe he is somehow faking it, but if not, woohoo!

I actually found his stories very entertaining. The guy is very imaginative.

I've figured out some things by reading his posts: he sympathizes with farmers and southerners, so im guessing he is from the south, likely a farming community. He also is very advocative of guns and military, so im guessing he had a military uprbringing. He is also very religious, so he must live in the bible belt, which is consistant with all the other stuff. Also given that he enjoys classic rock from the 70's and 80's (while lamenting about the current state of music), and is knowledgable about things only as far back as the 1960's, he would probably be in his late 40's, which i believe he also states--however he claims to have been born in 1998. Its likely he was born in 1955 or so--1958 may be appropriate. He also has knowledge of computer systems, though he pretends to play dumb; probably has some computer job. Which would be consistant with his huge amount of free time and geekish tendencies

Can you provide me a link or something so I can see for myself?

I posted the images of that machine in A+P. Turns out the images are much bigger than they look on the site..

Me and Falkenhort's thoughts: It's an amplifier that music bands use. Looks like an advanced one, too.
