Since I don't recall all of the article, I really can't say what the
theory
was all about. But I do remeber that you could just as easily go
backwards in
time, as forwards. They had some cool graph to illustrate it all, where
+y
beeing travelling to the future, and y- beeing to the past. Don't recall
the
x though :( And it wasn't the speed, but the gravity, I think. I'll try
to
get hold of the magazine again, it was rather cool :)
