User blog comment:ProfessorMcG/Time Travel. Is it possible?/@comment-1375165-20100813021654

"You would make ship sail against the winds and currents by lighting a fire under her deck? I have no time for such nonsense!" Wow, Civilization IV has made my life filled with a lot more quotes than it should be.

I think Lord Kelvin actually had a list of things which would never be invented, almost all of which have now. Still, time travel is a little bit...different. You can't really equate overcoming something that is logically impossible to something that is impossible by the day's science. It just can't make sense no matter which way you look at it.
