The Titor story is bullshit in my opinion, it seemed obvious that the prankster's motives were placed in getting attention and reactions. But in response to the "I don't believe in time travel" posts I'd like to indicate that time travel, at least forward time travel, is quite easy; all that is required to make "your" time go slower than "other" time is motion travel of any speed. Backward time travel I am skeptic towards, as it presents an almost infinite number of paradoxes ("what if you kill your grandfather" being the most known among them).
People like Titor make the world a more interesting place though. The thought of him laughing his ass off behind a computer screen as thousands of sheep go into hysteria over his storytelling amuses me to no end. There should be an award for people who give such original and amusing contributions to the rest of humanity.
