I believe access to key individuals in the private sector would be easier that on the military. Of course the military would be contacted, but you are in such vulnerable spot...if you loose access to the contents of your pockets, you could loose your edge. The military have to follow orders...civilians have freedom that the military do not. | |

Note: This is a work of fiction and I do not claim that everything presented in this novel is historically accurate. Yet, it may be useful in some regards. What do you think? @Dronz | |

But agreed, to someone who understands the technology the only way they'll think you're not a time traveller is if they find the very concept of time travel so absurd that they prefer to conclude you have secret chip fabs, access to unique battery and screen technology, etc. Butterfly-effect permitting, a few correctly predicted news events will ensure the skeptics lose the argument. | |
