Of all the concepts in SpeculativeFiction, TimeTravel is probably the one (that, ''over time'' has provided us) with the most possibilities for storytelling, and therefore the one that has been (''clocked'' as having been) exploited the most. Whether you're casting a critical eye on the past, satirizing the present through a warped future, or just looking for an excuse to have dinosaurs rampaging through New York, time travel is the way to go. Or, possibly, the way to have been going. It's so hard to tell these days. Or those days. Or whatever. Or ''whenever''. We tend to get [[TimeTravelTenseTrouble grammatically confused]] when talking on this subject.
