The Time Traveler Convention
A Group of MIT ians try out something interesting, trying to be at a place again at the same day same time .....
We are hosting the first and only Time Traveler Convention at MIT in two weeks, and WE NEED YOUR HELP! ......
More on the Convention (Click)
We need you to help PUBLICIZE the event so that future time travelers will know about the convention and attend. This web page is insufficient; in less than a year it will be taken down when I graduate, and futhermore, the World Wide Web is unlikely to remain in its present form permanently. We need volunteers to publish the details of the convention in enduring forms, so that the time travelers of future millennia will be aware of the convention. This convention can never be forgotten! We need publicity in MAJOR outlets, not just Internet news. Think New York Times, Washington Post, books, that sort of thing. If you have any strings, please pull them.
