Time travel is too dangerous and so impossible. "Time" was never meant to be a reality. It is a make-believe term to define "change". To go back in time would be to undo "change", and to go forward would be to quicken it. Undoing change without undoing self-change is impossible, thus time-travel is meaningless. It is like rewinding a tape...

I don't think time travel is possible because I don't think time exists. Time is just an idea; a word that we use to describe evidence of motion. Ask yourself, how do we know that time has passed. Answer: Because something has moved from where it used to be. It may be the hand on a clock, or enery from the sun; but something has to move in order for us to know that time has pased. So what we are calling "time travel" would be the systematic reversal of course of every atom, energy wave, and sub-atomic particle back through the exact same course that it traveled to get to the point in time called "now." As far as we know these particles have no record of where they have been and neither does any other thing possess such a record, except for God himself.
Even if such a record did exist and time could be reversed, no person could go back in time because the particles in his own body would be required in other places. This creates a quandry: 1) The loss of the particles that make up one's own body would prevent him from existing in the past and thus there is no way to produce evidence of the time travel. OR 2) If the all particles reversed course except for those in the time-traveler's body then those particles would not be present where they were at the destination time in the past. This difference means that the "past" that the person traveled to is not truly his past, but rather one that is slightly different. Furthermore, since every object has different particles, each object would travel back to a different past bacause the person/object would retain particles from different "past places" and thus create a different past than would an object just like it.
Exactly what I'm rambling about.

Now that is the first time I've ever heard any one suggest that time might have more than one dimension.
My quick answer (and it has to be quick ... it is January and the paper monsters is, once again, swollowing up my office), is it would put you in an alternate time line. The further left you go the further removed from your original 'time line' it would be. Not sure this could be done with only one additional dimension .... but it might be possible. Just picture the plane as a collection of time lines each just slightly different from the one beside it. Very close in the only differnce might be the way a quantum reaction in somewhere in the universe went up instead of down. Further away G might be different. Further yet ... who knows?
