Ten Amazing Slips In Time
One afternoon, during the mind-numbing tedium of a university Board Meeting, I sat electrified with wonder as I covertly read a sheaf of papers on Time Slips, sent to me by a veteran researcher, Carl Grove. At this point I had never heard of Time Slips. I have now read dozens of detailed cases, and even heard a personal one from a relative. Incredibly, many people have found themselves unexpectedly shifted from the present day to the past for many minutes or even hours. They are clearly in the same city, village or countryside, yet in another time period. They quite often interact with those in the past. Many time slip victims report similar physical oddities: they feel very flat or depressed, and there is an unnatural stillness or silence around them. Sometimes they feel jostled by invisible crowds of people. Although the vast majority of time slips involve the past, I have encountered cases of involuntary travel into the future.
