What happens when someone goes into the transfer portal and then re-emerges? Did time somehow freeze for them? Are they unnaturally aged due to traveling at the speed of light? I want answers!Quote:

I have no idea but I'm optimistic they re-emerge with a fully healed hamstring!Quote:

Important question,OPK...by failing to go all the way through, I think Young found himself much like the chaps in Star Trek who were moving via the Transporter when there was a power surge/interruption/Klingon attack/whatever...precarious.Quote:

That's interesting. Now that he's staying, we'll know what program he's in. I wonder where he got rejected initially.Quote:
