MC Nice Andrew Posted October 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 The conclusion is slightly flawed: it's commonplace to see people doing that action in this century - they must be using a mobile phone, we can't apply the same logic to that action almost 100 years ago. Too much thinking I feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jester1470 Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 I'm more impressed by which network was 60 years ahead of the game and had the communcations network in place in case someone wanted to make a call from the future...

So obviously it's NOT a time traveller, it's a communicator back to the mother ship and she/he is asking to be beamed up.Only logical explanation.

Teabags Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 You people are arguing that it can't be a time traveller on a phone, cos they'd have no phone network?So, if they managed to invent a time machine. they'd still need networks? OBVIOUSLY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 I love stuff like this.There's a picture on the same site where I saw this video of some guy stood in a crowd of people in the 1940's, and all the men in suits and hats, and this one guy is there with some very modern looking sunglasses, a zip up sweater half undone, with a t shirt with a printed logo on it. Pretty neat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted October 29, 2010 Report Share Posted October 29, 2010 One of the arguments about that picture with the man and his camera, look at his right arm. It doesn't look like his arm. It looks like a different sleeve and its in an awkward position. Looks like it belongs to person he has possibly been photoshopped over the top of.

Teabags Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 As you can tell from these, old-fashioned mechanical or resonating hearing aids were not necessarily long and rounded, said Philip Skroska, an archivist at the Bernard Becker Medical Library of Washington University in St. Louis. Short, compact rectangular forms were not unusual.In other words, they could look something like a cell phone to imaginative YouTube viewers in the 21st century."
