    Hang on, we all travel forward in time. It's that it is experienced by the traveler at a different 'rate'. Or somefink, like that. They don't 'travel in time' anymore than anyone else.
    How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

      Like shrews for instance. Their little hearts beat like the clappers (to keep themselves heated) so live their lives at a million miles an hour, relative to humans. Or somefink.

        Ah! Bless! Girlie trying to understand.

        Er, yes, but no. The opposite; the travelers' 'heart beat' would be slowing and live their lives slower, relatively.
