    The more interesting question is how to tell if you’ve slipped into a parallel universe. Here’s a couple of obvious ways: 1. You go to a medical appointment and the doctor sees you at the time of your appointment; and 2. You go to the supermarket and your trolley runs in a straight line. How else would you tell?

    How to entertain yourself and start an urban legend:
    1. Dress in an offbeat, slightly odd but memorable fashion.
    2. Run into a shop demanding to know the year.
    3. When they tell you simply respond "Damn! Too early!" Then thank them and run out.
    4. Exactly one year later dress in the same outfit and run into the same store and ask the same question.
    5. When they answer yell "Yes! It worked! There is still time to save her!" And run out again.
    2k+ likes? Thank you all. It's nice to know there are more slightly warped people like me around. The downside of so many liking the idea is that someone will run into a shop and the staff will say: "Another one? You're the third time traveller this week."

    You could also tell where you are based on what plants and animals you see. If you see people farming corn, for example, you know you're in North or South America, if you see emus, you know you're in Australia, and if you see ostriches, zebras, or lions, you know you're in Africa, at least if you see ALL of them, but if out of those three you ONLY see lions, you might be in Europe from earlier, probably between 191,000 and 57,000 years ago.

You can't move in space without moving in time. Time is something we can measure. It is affected by both gravity and speed. The clock on satellites tick at a different rate then on earth, so we have to adjust the time on them. Hell even if you take a clock on top of the Everest it ticks at a different time then on sea level.

      @Patrick Cossack Good? I argue this: if an idea is not from God, then remove its leader here on this Earth, and the movement dies. Jesus was no fool. Can you predict the future? Only God can, and he has told this civilization much. It is the rejection of his Son, that will cause Antichrist to come. Many will side with Mr. 666 and go down to their deaths. This world system will be judged.
