We'll go back in time and make sure you-know-who is a boy scout

I just noticed that DoD has posted the following:



Title: 

        Defense Sciences Research and Technology - Time Reversal Methods

Sponsor: 

        United States Department of Defense (DOD)       

        Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)       

Deadline:

        March 14, 2003

So they're asking researchers to consider time reversal. Maybe that means a failed proposal could go back in time, become better, and succeed?

I wonder how much a "deadline" means for a program like this?

You mean that in the DOC group we're wasting our time with computer hardware and software issues when there is currently a bounty out for time travel research? What I wouldn't give to see the proposals they get for this one...

Yeah, are they giving out grants for working on time reversal? It doesn't seem like anyone is really going to make much progress on this, by which I mean that I will make as much progress as anyone else. So how do I get some money to work on time reversal?
