2* Remember back in 2004, when we all had those self-driving, voice-activated cars that looked [[http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_BffVRhsD5v0/SUVZvPzhvYI/AAAAAAAAA1c/Lliw5nSBfsU/s320/h-tcop-car12s.jpg like this]]? That future got erased along with the time machines as the ultimate result of repeated attempts to alter the timeline. This is actually Creator/LarryNiven's [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niven%27s_laws#Niven.27s_Law_.28re_Time_travel.29 Law of Time Travel]]: (paraphrased) "If a device capable of altering the past can be created, the past will be altered continuously until a timeline is created where that device does not exist."
