That's a good point, but only if it goes both ways. Just like there's no YOU from the point you travel to the past, there should be no YOU until the point you travel back too, because there aren't two YOU nor the mass/actions are "recorded" somehow/somewhere. Unless you consider alternative universes, where there is one YOU in the past and multiple YOU in the future (as the future is uncertain, so there would be many different probable YOU). But in that case, the problem in my previous post remains.

terms like present are based on what you see if you came back jumped 5 mins from now would you realy not call that the present. remeber that time is not even moving at the same rate base on how fast you are going. ie. from wikipeda on gps.

One thing is the real time elapsed, another is how fast a clock ticks. One thing is time, another is an instrument. Or am I missing something?
