If you could visit any moment in time and be a witness first-hand, without having an impact on it, what would it be?

I'd say my top five would be 1. The Last Supper 2. The Assasination of Julius Caesar 3. The Battle of Thermopolaye 4. Woodstock 5. The premiere of Star Wars A New Hope

Not for the brutality of the murders, but to watch the mannerisms, facial expressions, and lifestyle of the participants, I would like to witness life on Barker and Spahn Movie ranches in August thru December of 1969.

Top 5, no particular order:
1. Gettysburg Address 2. Inauguration of George Washington to his first term. 3. From afar: Witnessing/Feeling the shockwave of the Atomic Bombs being dropped on Japan 4. The Creation/Delivery of the Trojan Horse to Troy and the aftermath. 5. Being on board the first submirsable that found the FUCKTARDic.
And just to clarify, no I do not take joy in the fact that #3 and #4 happened (presumed for #4, no evidence to verify it did actually happen), but because they are a part of history, and the stipulation is that I cannot change it from happening, being able to see it first hand would be an honor.

I would enjoy being able to go back and see The Shot Heart 'Round the World... the baseball one, not the war one.

I thought about the trojan horse myself, it'd be pretty cool to see odyssyus and all of the rest of the old greek heros. Also did anyone else find Zane's Trash Talking through time plan as funny as I did?

You are facinated with Charles Manson, huh? It is so unfathomable. I wonder what kind of drugs they were on.

I read "Manson In His Own Words" and while I know at least 1/3rd of it was bull; the stuff he did come clean about was pretty interesting. I found it interesting that he still holds his mother in high esteem and that he was protecting the Manson girls from Satanists.
