According to Marckus, the Nazi time machine is roughly called "lantern

Of course David Deutsch would tell you that "other times" are special
cases of "other universes"; in some of those alternative worlds the
Nazis won WWII; developed exotic weapons etc. Perhaps they were trying
to call for help?”

Good point. The ideas of Julian Barbour, David Deutsch on time derive
from Sir Fred Hoyle’s sci-fi novel “The Black Cloud” that I read at
Birkbeck I think in 1971. See also P. K. Dick “The Man in the High
Castle.” You can imagine some of the saucers from parallel worlds where
the Nazis did win if you take that interpretation of quantum reality
seriously. See also “Virtual History: Alternatives and Counterfactuals”
by Niall Ferguson. In many worlds theory there are no counterfactuals.
All is factual.
BTW Nick Cook mentions a big aerospace legend guy who could make
paperclips float - "Operation Paperclip"? ;-)

hehe, you said Ringhole.

There is a theorem that says that since all factual universes must exist,
there can be no universes where Jack Sarfatti actually makes any sense.
You read it here first.
There is a also a theorem that a philosopher
wouldn't know the difference between a
counter and a fact to begin with, so
it's actually irrelevent. Since these
people are stupider Einstones, they're
in fact Goedellian stupid.

Even a broken clock is right twice a day, so I expect he'll get
something right eventually. Still, I don't expect the broken clock to
brag about it.
