	ok, say you were traveling the same speed as a light particle. then you
became faster than the light particle. wouldn't you just run into the
next light particle. then the next, then the next...  How does this have
anyrelation to time travel? 
	I think that what einstein stated was that if you ran away from a clock
at the speed of light, the clock would stay still. if you ran faster
than the speed of light you would run into a new light particle that
took the place of the light particle you just saw.  so if you went
faster than the speed of light, all you would see would be a gray void
of light.  I don't know where people got the idea that if you went
faster than the speed of light you would go back in time?!?
	but i'm just some 16 year old kid, so what do i know...
