Time Traveler in Chaplin film - The Mad American - 10-28-2010

Sure looks like a cell phone but I am sure they are just talking to their comlink back to the Enterprise....

It could be that she (or is that a dude in drag?) is a schizophrenic talking into her/his eyeglass case, but yeah, it's odd.

Then there's this odd 1940 photo from a Canadian museum - why is there what looks like a hipster slacker standing in a group of appropriately attired 1940s people? From the analysis, there is no one item that could not be found at that time, there's just a general feeling of being out of place - or time:

There's a very famous photo of a group of cowboys standing around what looks like a pterodactyl, presumably a hoax, that was allegedly published in the Tombstone Epitaph. Hundreds of people seem to remember having seen it in the 1960s, but no one can find a copy. Some think it was in an Ivan T. Sanderson book, or a copy of Fate or Argosy. Some remember remember having seen it on a syndicated TV show, such as Alan Burke or Joe Pyne (who were the Art Bells of the 1960s). Researchers have combed through entire runs of magazines and newspapers without success. Fortean writers have written about it a lot (google "Thunderbird photo").

I remember seeing it, too, very clearly, at some point in the mid-1960s

If something existed, then disappeared completely due to some time-traveling incident or time travelers covering their tracks, would all memory of it vanish, or would the gap in the space-time continuum left behind create this kind of large-scale phantom memory among the many who saw it?

Hearing device, cell phone?
Another viral video hoax. Rolleyes

Rasalom deleted that photo from history, didn't he?

I've seen it explained a lot of places that she is using an early version of a hearing aide. But who knows Tongue

If it is a cell phone, just a couple of obvious questions:

Who is she talking to?
How is the signal being relayed? (Can time travelers' communication devices transmit through the space/time continuum?)

Why is this news?:mad2:

"It's just a hearing aid," says Christian Science.

So assuming that there was time travel possible you are hung up on the fact that the cell technology would have to operate on the same technology that it doesn now?

Hehe. It is not news, it is something to get people posting dammit!! And it kind of worked.:hello:
