1st, definitely the late '60s and early '70s..when I could feel how does it feel to be a hippie chick, or I could see my favorite classic rock bands and being one of their groupies...lol. 2nd, must be the time when dinosaurs and all those giant animals still alive..I am just curious to see them in reality. 3rd, the early 1900s ..where I could wear those petty coated-dresses, and perhaps being a woman who could do rebelious things in that era and be remembered for that.

Thanks for the response! I hadn't thought about the dinosaur era! What a neat concept! I do wonder what the earth must have looked like before us humans started chipping away at it!

i would go to the 1930 (like about a few years after world war 1) and stop preventing the 2nd one begins. so less people wil die from it. we can save a lot of lives too. we can learn some facts too. we can tell peoples in future about history. -19th to 20th century-

Thanks for the response! I definetely feel we can learn a lot from history. I like the idea of being able to stop a catastrophe from happening if possible....something to ponder for sure!

Wow! This discussion was 3 years ago. Back in time in 2009. If I could go back in time I would certainly choose the time when Jesus performed his miracles. I can witness first hand information on the Life of Jesus Christ and His Ministry. This is to prove that He lives and He is the Son Of God.

I could only turn back time i want to go back in the year on 2011 in my life where i made the best wrong decision in my life. I want to correct all the mistake that i made. I wish the wrong things that i made before is just a dream because i know to my self that now, i cannot correct the wrong decision that i made last year. I take the blame to myself for all of my life.

I remember answering something like this on mylot many months ago. Anyway, i'll answer again. I would like to go back to ancient Greece. The time when aristotle was around and be his deciple. He one person whose philosophy has influenced the world the most, for the better.I would like to walk by his side while when he spoke. Would like to watch the changes he brought in his deciples.Though, i'm not really keen to see him die the way he did. I would also like to go to 13th-14th century Italy to be at the fountainhead of rennaissance and witness firsthand this great revolution. Mankind had a quantum leap during this period. I would also like to go to 1940's India to witness the freedom struggle. Indian independence is a mystery to some historians even today.Even though we hear many accounts of british atrocities ,the freedom struggle itself was largely bloodless .The Britishers had really no reason to leave India. India which was the diamond in the british crown, the hen that laid golden eggs. There was a fourth in this list some while ago. To go to 1920's U.S to witness the great depression. But looks like i'll be witnessing great depression part 2 in my lifetime itself! Big list ah?
