[color=#000000ost_uid0][quoteost_uid0]Has anybody ever seen 7 days? I have absolutely no idea how they explain that... [/quoteost_uid0]

That was kinda strange. I mean, how did he avoid running into himself? And with all the jumping back, wouldn't that mean he'd get older a lot quicker compared to those around him? It just doesn't make any sense.

[quoteost_uid0]I don't know that novel. What was the explanation?
[/quoteost_uid0]

You know the theory that goes 'For every major event the timeline splits so that all the possible outcomes happen [iost_uid0]somewhere[/iost_uid0]'? It's what they used for [iost_uid0]Sliders[/iost_uid0] anyway. Well, in [iost_uid0]Timescape[/iost_uid0], the future scientists send this message back, and essentially force a split in the timeline because the message arriving [iost_uid0]was[/iost_uid0] the event. The timeline that the future scientists occupy continues as normal from their point of view, but a new timeline is created in which the ecological disaster doesn't happen because the message tells the past scientists how to prevent it. Basically speaking, they cause a new leg in the Trousers of Time to appear in the past whilst continuing down their own leg.

Does that make any sense?[/colorost_uid0]
