    A. You see what appears to be yourself appearing from nowhere, say hello then walk off.
    B. You enter your time machine.
    C. You emerge ten seconds ago, see yourself, say hello, and walk off.

    No loop, just a series of events that happen out of universal time (but in order in your own personal timeline).

    This is the comparable with a thread asking "How do you think Santa flys around the world so quickly?" and everyone giving science answers.

    Imagine slagging people off for posing nonsensical questions.

    Pure not worse than just about any other thread in the "Spirituality / Philosophy" sub-thread.

    You know, like, the ones about God and that?

    Well the point's already been made and they're still discussing it.
    I'm sure everyone concerned has taken the points on board.

    Re: Time Travel

    Remember, you observing yourself getting into the time machine are a product of that activity and you are still moving through time. You might be in the same physical location, but you cannot see "you" appearing ten seconds ago because you've moved forward in time.
    So you don't get two or more of you appearing other than in that ten second window, and you don't get an endless loop.

    So what is it?
    The interval between birth and death is fractal. Any given moment is infinitely deep and rich, and therefore one lifetime is quite enough for me.
