This is the idea that the past itself is an impenetrable wall, and that we can only access it mentally. Other energies cannot enter, so they bounce of of it. This makes time travel into the elasped past impossible as well...

Bluecuriousity:Mentally, the past, present and future may all be the same. And that would work for abstract physics equations. However, physically, it does not work, which is why we bounce off of our own past. I'm drawing a definite distinction between mental and physical because of the differences between the two. Mentally, we don't have to influence the past. Physically, we do.

Really who is to say that past present and future aren't all the same thing anyway? Maybe its our conscienceness that provides us with moments in time.
Most all physics equasions with respect to time work the same in forwards and reverse.

Try asking a question using words that do not need to be qualified by quotes to indicate that the literal meaning of the word is not implied. That is, ask a meaningful question.

I would think so, but I sure have had allot of De Ja Vu that make me wonder.
