where to start... mierin sedai - 21/01/2003 04:19:31 PM

I go back to ancient Egypt and have a chat with Akhnaton. I want to know what set him up to the idea of there only being one god.

Then... I'd go talk to Moses, see what he had to say for himself.

Theeeeeen. Socrates, Plato and Aristotle. I would really like to talk to the three. Assess them, so to speak, and have them explain this or that to me. And then I'd throw a ball, and show Aristotle how it works.

Alexander the Great would also be nescessary. I NEED to know whether he has good or bad.

Ok, I'll skip along for a while. you are probably guessing your way through the history of philosophy, and you are probably right.

Then I'd like to live for a while in the Jane Austen world. Meet her perhaps.

Flow on to Charles Dickens.

Oh, damn! I forgot the Incas! I'd like to talk to Manco Capac, see who he was. And Patchacutec.
Same goes for Kubla Kahn. And George Washington. And Solon, did I forget him?
Same goes for Benjamin Disraeli, by the way

And Tolkien. I'd like to have a real long chat with him. Loooooooong chat.

Oh, well. I guess I should stop here.
Oh, let me remark though; I do not wish to see the future.

Dissenting voice of wotmania
