I'm sure there have probably been discussions about this in the past, but I don't care.
Anyways, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Titor
John Titor is a guy that posted on some forums in late 2000/early 2001 that claimed he was on a time travelling mission for the US government. He said he was sent to the year 1975 to retrieve an IBM PC to be used in debugging computer systems in 2036.
He claims to be from a seperate "Worldline" with a 1% to 2% difference than ours.
He also made several predictions about future events :
- A Second American Civil War from 2004-2008, during which civil liberties would be surrendered under the guise of National security
Lots of people disapprove of Bush, but I don't see a civil war breaking out any time soon. The civil liberties part is a bit worrying though.
- 2004 is the last year the Olympics will be held.
The 2006 Winter Olympics went off without a hitch, although some think he may have meant the Summer Olympics.
-An event similar to the "parting of the Red Sea" will occur in 2012.
-Third World War in 2015, a gradual global escalation that was ended by Russia bombing American, European and Chinese cities.
* Sometime before this point (referred to as "N-Day") China forcefully annexes Japan, Korea and Taiwan.
I'm guessing that stands for Numbers day...
* Chemical and Biological weapons are used, and some "non-lethal" weapons turned out to be quite lethal.
* Australia successfully repels a Chinese invasion.
* The war kills over 3 billion people.
- In the year 2036, Microsoft and Yahoo! no longer exist. Napster still distributes music via the web.
- President of Asia elected 2006
-Also cocks
He also included a few pictures, they're on the Wiki.
Supporting his story :
Not Supporting his story : We had the Olympics, U.S. is too content being fat and sickening conservative religious zealots to tear itself apart from the inside.
This is probably one of the best hoaxes of all time. Assuming, of course, that is is a hoax. :shh:

Supporting his story :
Wikipedia said:According to IBM engineer Bob Dubke, Titor's statements regarding the IBM 5100 ability to emulate and debug mainframe systems were correct. This information was not publicly known when Titor made his declaration, which has led to speculation that if Titor was a hoaxer, he must have been linked somehow to the development of this system.
