Recently the Science Channel has been BLOWING OUR MINDS with its series Morgan Freeman's Through the Wormhole. The third episode entitled "Is Time Travel Possible?" explores any of the time travel theories that we have covered in our blog. We were unable to be interviewed for this episode because we were busy with biking tours through America's dairy land, cross country road trips, graduation celebrations. I know what you are thinking -- why didn't you just use your time machine to go back in time and film the interview. Believe me, we thought about it. However, we decided that this would fall under UNREGULATED time travel. As you all know our time travel code of ethics does not allow us to use our machine for any unregulated time traveling, therefore we are not able to provide an interview. Instead, our experts watched the recent episode and have given it our stamp of approval. Here we will briefly discuss some of the show's interpretations.
I think everyone would agree with me when I say that some of the information will leave the naive time travel supporter depressed. We are told that if the universe rotated quickly we could time travel, but it can't. We are also told the black holes are NOT time machines because they would kill us. The uneducated might give up on time travel all together. However, all of us here at our laboratory can assure you that time travel is absolutely still possible. We have a number of theories that went unmentioned in this documentary, mostly because we were not there to present them. While we would have been happy to have the time travel experts who were interviewed explain our theories, they told us that they did not feel comfortable explaining such brilliant science. We understand.
After watching the full episode, I think we can all agree that a successful time machine will have the voice of Morgan Freeman in the TPS system (a TPS system is similar to a GPS, but for time). If you didn't think time travel was possible before watching this episode, surely Morgan Freeman's voice can convince you that time travel is possible. We are currently working with Freeman's people to see if he could do a show focusing on the dangers of unregulated time travel. Governing bodies around the world would have no choice but to address unregulated time travel as a pressing political issue.
Think about it... if we had a time machine we probably wouldn't allow BP to unload a shit ton of oil in the ocean. Such use of a time machine would not only be regulated, but morally required.

I highly recommend you watch the most recent season of Doctor Who for all kinds of unregulated time travel shenanigans.
