The blurry hand looks like subject movement to me. See the blurriness at the top of the hand in post 51 on p. 6.

We had the same thought while filming a video last summer Lizzy. We were all dressed in period clothes and went into a 7-11 for some cokes, the girl behind the counter was really staring at us. We laughed about it and said someone should have been filming it like a Candid Camera episode, and convinced her that me and my "wife' were driving along when all of a sudden we didn't recognize the road or where we were. Ask her questions about the date and town and pay with old currency. Maybe walk in smoking a cigarette and when she says "there's no smoking in here" act astonished. Could be a lot of fun. I don't think this thread is about a "hoax" though, I believe it's something these guys saw as odd, and they offered an explanation, no matter how far fetched it may seem to people.

There's an essay on time travel that deals with tensed vs. tenseless views of time. It's too complicated to summarize here--you can read it in Harry Potter and Philosophy, p. 192.
I won't say time travel is impossible, only that the simplest explanation for something is usually the correct one.

So how many dehydrated meals did you set aside?
Hey really, I was working a store that sold camping supplies at the time, and you wouldn't believe how many cases of MRE's that we sold before the Y2K scare.

Oh, I don't doubt it. I would have sold the heck out of them too if I had the chance.

Ahhhh.... you all laugh but think of it this way. If time travel is even possible at any time in the future even 1000 years from now, then it has always existed. Put that in your doubting pipes and smoke it
