Q #47
You have the power to go any distance into the future and, after one year, return to the present with any knowledge you have gained from your experience but with no physical objects. Would you make the journey if it carried a 50% risk of death.

Sure I would as long as the knowledge I would gain would prevent the 50% risk of death. Sign me up!
50% chance of death? Heck no. I'm not ready to leave.
I don't think so... I'll let the future play out on its own.
Wow .... so tempting to bring back knowledge of one set of lottery #'s .... but if people wouldn't take a 90% chance of success with the guns, I doubt any of you would take a 50% chance with time travel.
The idea of Time Travel is tempting .... I love watching movies involving such ... if they are well done.
Not at all. The future hasn't yet happened, and I would like to keep it that way. Never a dull moment.
If you would have asked in your classroom when I was a teenager my answer would be quite different. I loved rollercoasters then. I now see rollercoasters as a 50% chance of death. LOL. Love ya! Happy Monday!
was my answer clear as mud?
in other words 50% chance of death = no thanks!
Nope
