The problem is it's very difficult to do it in more than one second intervals. But not impossible. Just travel close to the speed of light for a bit. |

We're going to need a different approach to solve the mystery of the 1964 Benjamin Half and Nixon Half, because, ...... didn't Einstein point out to us that as you approach the speed of light, your mass will go to infinity, and therefore, your coins will get to heavy to manage and have attributed.

Relativistically speaking, what I'd do is take my collection to 99.99% the speed of light for about a year, and when I come back it's 100 years later and all my shield cents are worth, you know, a lot.

Besides Richard M. Nixon, Lyndon B. Johnson, Adlai Stevenson, and Senator Hubert Humphrey also were in the running for the 35th President. Predictions without Kennedy running may vary, but without the world shocking assassination of JFK happening, I don't think any of those characters would have appeared on the coin. The most likely obverse would have been Benjamin Franklin until at least 1973. I believe it could still be Franklin today. I for one, wish that were the case. But for jbuck ...  I do think there's a chance that Eisenhower may have been on the Half Dollar instead of the Dollar if there were a change. Same design, smaller coin and we would not have a dollar coin today at all but more Ikes for jbuck to collect.  |

I for one, wish that were the case. Ultimately I agree. I was saying only that in the " Timeless universe" Nixon could have been the one who ended up being there. |

I have the episode on my DVR as I have yet to watch any of this season. You should be able to go back in and look at recently deleted and recover it if possible.

I have di-wrecked tv that allows me to save about 100 movies I guess. I am at about 75% used so I delete certain shows I set to record.
