Traveling to the planets takes big money and we've been part of the squabbing over where NASA money in particular ought to be allocated. But what about projects that take small money? The term is relative, of course, but John Cramer (University of Washington) thinks $20,000 should suffice to run his experiment in time travel, and with NASA's Institute for Advanced Concepts now shutting down, he's having a hard time raising it.
Read on. I can't help but feel Cramer's idea -- if validated -- might have some practical benefits for the computer industry. Perhaps instead of petitioning the NASA bureaucracy he should approach the likes of Bill Gates.

Ack-aaacckkk! Not Bill Gates! Nor Steve Jobs! Or Paul Allen! Don't these kind of guys already control enough of our lives?!
I insist that the potential technologies of time travel and quantum computing be administered under very tight regulations, in a public manner, by an international consortium...that way we will be assured that everything is properly administered without the inherent dangers therein...yeah, right!
