The Time Traveler Convention

OK, so someone over at MIT has spiked the punch. Someone from THE FUTURE! One of the eggheads there (meant in the most endearing manner possible) had the brilliant inspiration to host a Time Traveler Convention. Here’s the invite. And here are the exact space-time coordinates:

May 7, 2005, 10:00pm EDT (08 May 2005 02:00:00 UTC)
East Campus Courtyard, MIT
42:21:36.025°N, 71:05:16.332°W
(42.360007,-071.087870 in decimal degrees)

It’s a shame I live so far away from Boston now. I never thought I would ever say that, but the idea of attending the greatest gathering of intrepid time travellers in all of history is appealling. Just think, 08 May 2005 02:00:00 UTC might well be the moment to which future time spelunkers calibrate their chronometers! Tally ho!!
