Dan: As of about 2017 I would expect that all of these little pieces of equipment will probably get reassembled.
Kerry: Turned back on?
Dan: Oh sure.
Kerry: 2017, that's quite a while?
Dan: 2016 - 2017
Kerry: Not until then?
Dan: Probably not.
-- skipping forward slightly --
Kerry: What we're looking at is a very low probability of the event or the set of events occurring at this point?
Dan: Yes. We're looking at a low probability of the higher catastrophic portion of the events occurring.

Looking at Titor's predictions about a Civil War and WW3 ending in 2015, I'm not as intrigued as I once was. What do you think OP?
One of the first things I noticed is that he talks about problems with the elections in 2004, which sparks a civil war and eventually leads to a nuclear war in 2015. Now obviously none of that has happened in this reality, but we are now coming up to an election which seems like it could have the potential to spark a civil war. Also keep in mind that Titor himself stated this time line was not exactly like his own, it varied by up to a few percent, and that just by being here he had changed things.
I think we had to avoid that war after John Titor appeared in our time line because imagine if all his predictions actually turned out to be true... people would know he actually did travel here from a different time. That would mean any secret plans by GE and CERN to develop a time machine would be exposed. Assuming Titor was legit, the people behind the development of time travel would have recognized that his science was valid and from that point on do everything in their power to avoid the war he predicted.
...he stated that he hid himself during the civil war in the US, while also stating in other instances that he fought in the war. In some posts, he claims that money is widely used and people still have credit cards, despite his statement that centralized banking no longer exists (this is either an inconsistency or implies the rise of private currencies).

Thanks for taking the time to reply - stargates, "looking glasses" and time travel - it's almost like we've got the old ATS back! S & F for this one

Good point - that could make sense.
Just perusing the Wikipedia page on Titor, it also says there were a few other contradictions in some of Titor's claims - this I suppose could also be attributed to changes from other travelers, or perhaps a "fake" John Titor copycat put out false info.

I think the same with Dan.. That aside, it is kind of interesting. this might be psychological, but I've written about this all over ATS. it was around 2016 that for the first time in my life a giant weight had been lifted.

I have to say I sort of get what you are saying, but I think it could also have a lot to do with the fact Hillary lost, haha.

You lost me with "Dan Burisch."
Why is that? Is he a known hoaxer or something?
