Science becomes science fiction. Science fiction begets science. That sounds deep, but it isn't. Please ignore.

It's May 11th, 9:50PM my time. It's only 8:50AM your time.

So, technically it was.

Seriously, though, you can contribute to the real one, here.

Unless that is, creating the paradox and destroying space-time was part of the original time-thread, ie your 'destiny'. In which case, not doing that would ...... Ow my head hurts.

I clicked on that link...I'm pretty sure it took me through a worm hole into some alternate universe. In that alternate universe there is a GRM message board and a thread titled Science and Science Fiction, but it is full of completely different posts than the same titled thread in this universe.

I've seen things in the weapons world that just had to be science fiction.

Guess what....

Apparently, the answer is always either 'Miata', or 'alternate universe', depending on your temporal juxtiposition.

This forum is an alternate universe: get in the seat, and it will take you places that you never dreamed, and maybe never happened in the first place, which makes little sense, once you think about it..

Miatas from the alternate universe are just like our Miatas, but they arrive just slightly sooner.

(You can always tell when some guy in C-Stock paid big bucks to bring one in from a parallel dimension. Personally, I don't think that is very sporting. I mean, really expensive Penske shocks or cryo-treated pistons in a stock class are one thing, but honestly, paying a team of physicists to cross dimensions and surf altuniverse.craiglsist.org to find a decent used Miata with the R-package and wormhole it over to our dimension is a bit much just to win at Nationals IMHO.)
