Hearing Nothing at the moment
I've got a major tune-up scheduled for the van today, so I'll be spending the better part of my morning in a dealership waiting room. Until I get back, here are some science-oriented links to keep you busy:
Scientists say you can't travel back in time. Of course, that's what the Galactic Council on Time Travel told them to say. It's a conspiracy!
Sleep is for uploading memories into permanent storage. Maybe. Always "maybe" with these scientist types.
Why it's not so nice to live in nature. The folks filming a nature documentary show off some unedited hunting. Rousseau was right!

While you're out...trade the van in, and come home with a Mustang.
When Krissy bitches about it, just hold up a hand and say "John Scalzi needs this ride."... then just keep eating. Your use of Third Person to describe yourself will throw her off her planned attack, and you can defeat her with syntax and logic... which, as a writer with a philosophy degree, is right up your alley.
Let her seize the day.. while you seize the future. Her natural reaction may be to go out and buy a BMW SUV ("we need the cargo space for the child and the Akita"), but she's not from Cape Cod. -
The Vulcan Science Directorate has found no evidence for the existence of time travel, though they seem to be very supportive of formfitting catsuits. -- Joe

If Liu was handing that explanation in as a thesis, and I in some other multiverse was a professor, I would have failed him. He doesn't express why time travel is doomed to fail.
"So we can't travel back in time because of dimples in spandex?"
"Nope."
"Uh, Why not?"
"Because uhhh, you just can't!"
"Mmhmm."

You can be subtle... "Hey everyone... I'm at Greasemonkey's in Akron, area code 497-....."
Try it. It might save you $500.
