My state was founded by Batman. Your opinion is invalid.
50's / 60's.
Beatniks, acid culture, crazy literature/art, huge political and social change. Exciting times.
Also tempted to say the big materialist/capitalist good-times prior and after the great Wars. Times of unparalled optimism and human advancement; the 50's and 60's had this to a lesser degree but the whole Cold War / Vietnam thing kinda soured the atmosphere that Britain enjoyed, say, during Victoria's reign before the outbreak of the Great War. Neo-liberalism in general is a fun thing to experience though.

There were so many ages with attractive qualities. I could not, without some certainty of well being, leave this time for the past.
Hey its alright mate, dont panic or nothing, the OP's asking you to do it Hypothetically through the virtual powers of the internet. Your not really going to travel backwards, its just for fun. Go on pick a time to travel back. I know I sound like a sarcastic prick, I don't mean to be, I have no beef with you, your one of the good guys, thats why I for one is interested to see where you go back to.Superior Mind wrote:

I would go back to a time when the Library of Alexandria was still intact and read until it hurt. That would a grand indulgence.
Given a different chance I would go to around 16k years ago (and perhaps jump in periods of 500 years back and forth a few times.) and explore the late ice age world in search of now lost civilizations.

I'd go a few years later to find out if he was legit though.
He wasn't all he was cracked up to be.
If I was gonna go to the past I'd take a tank, then own some Roman's or something. Future, I'd go kill space Nazis.

I wouldn't mind being born in the time periods of some amazing constructions, like the Pyramids, and the other world wonders.
I would also like to see a dinosaur.
Then I hope you get shot
I would go back in time during Sherman's march to the sea and fuck up the south a litttle bit more.

Imagine the looks on the face of some ancient army if they were faced with like, a line of Bradley's.

Harder than I though to be honest as there is such an immense range of periods to choose from. Napoleonic France in any case is high on my list, as is late Imperial Russia (assuming you weren't a serf). Dying at Thermopylae or fighting alongside Jeanne D'Arc sounds also amazing, as do Byzantium, Jerusalem during the Frankish occupation, and Tenochtitlan or Cuzco prior to the arrival of the Spanish. The last stands at Syracuse v.s. the Romans or of the mianland Celts v.s. the Romans at Alessia must also have been epic, but do not appeal to me as much. Minoan Crete seems leisurely

Year 1247, in Kiev, so I can kill John of Plano Carpini's party.
Superior Mind's idea sounds quite appealing to me, the Library of Alexandria was amazing.
Egypt around the time of Tutankamum (Spelling?) would be quite extraordinary too, just because I used to have a class taught about the Egyptians back at school and it intrigued me. They were fascinating people.
But for me at the present time, I'd go back to 1966 to the time that England won the World Cup. Just to be involved with something that had such an amazing atmospehere that THAT World Cup had, would be staggering, plus I don't particularly fancy Englands chances in the near future for the World Cup.

I would live in the days when bringing cocain from columbia on your own personal plane was new, so i could get into that, make 100's of millions, and retire driving 1980's ferrari's and enjoying the high life of Miami.
