Now this is remarkable. I've been made to understand that this is a regular event around here, this sudden seemingly free influx of unexpected visitors. One with a limited timespan as well, from my understanding. Which means it is vital to make the most of this research opportunity while it's presented itself.

Certainly somewhere there must be some indication as to the manner of the connection between this dimension and others - more apparent now than typically - and how it has been possible for those of us whose stays here are somewhat less transitory to find ourselves achieving transdimensional passage to begin with...

I am not so sure about fixing things that others have done. Time is too complex and too poorly understood.

What is it designed for? Not simple flying, surely?

[what_the_flux]

Well. It can be necessary, in... very specific, controlled circumstances, to undo deliberate changes made via time travel by unscrupulous individuals. Though, frankly, I'm currently of the belief that it's simply too much power for any one individual to wield.

No, no-- though it did fly, after some modifications. It was originally a car.

Maybe you are right.

[You, Doc, have never had to deal with time-traveling Romulans.]

Ah! You made all of these modifications? Are you an engineer?

[what_the_flux]

Perhaps it's the just sort of thing that needs to be left to best judgement in any specific circumstances.

[His rogue time-traveler was much less threatening. And a lot dumber. And did more specific, contained damage. And a lot of things.]

Among other things! I'm foremost an inventor, but I do appreciate and study all sciences.

I might question the judgment of some who decide what is proper protocol in a peculiar circumstance.

All sciences? What do you do, when you are home? Do you teach?
