I'm torn between Chaucer, Joan of Arc, Hypatia, and Sir Isaac Newton.

I'd go back to the founding of the US. Let the founders know what happens and see their thoughts on what today's laws should become.

I'd like to go back to when the aliens Egyptians first began building the pyramids, or see what society was like on easter island when they first began making the statues, or see the building of stoenhenge. It would be interesting to see how these things were done, and why...

I would go back to England in 1604 and meet Guy Fawkes, and tip him off not to trust that backstabbing fucker Tresham.

I went the other year and it was fascinating. They've got working reproductions of the Bombes (ENIGMA breaking computers) and Colossus (Lorenze Cipher breaking computer). Additionally: 1000th post.

I want to meet the Picts, so I can study their languages. And pre-Indo-European Europe would be very interesting. Basque is one of those languages that is thought to be a remnant from a time before the rise of Indo-European languages.
