So then. If you could go back in time, to any period in history, which would it be? Post pictures please to illustrate.
Here is mine. I want to go back to the wild west (not the wicky wicky wild west).

Before the "big bang".
Sorry, no pictures, but here's an artist's rendition of right after the fact:
 RIP Little Bucharest: Yuppies. They don't eat goulash. |

I'm scared to go back in time because I don't want this to happen to me:
"You'll soon be dust your deeds already are, You saw no orb no fiery bushes either, I must be drunk I feel unsteady, No monster me, sadly no saint either... " |

Close - it's Dutch sensation Hieronymus Bosch with his top-40 hit of the year 1500, the Temptation of St Anthony (detail). More of the panel can be viewed here

Are we to surmise by this image that you want to go back to hang out with Bucky Fuller? Yeah - that would be cool. I'm down with the geodesic shit.

YES!!! Tho I think I'd rather be a Nebari... or Delvian I suppose. Of course, living on Moya isn't exactly time travel, but I am all up for some alternate reality.

i'd either go back to the time of the the begining of life on earth, but probably not when they were so big, like in the Cretaceous, but back furhter when they were littler - just coming out of the oceans and stuff - like in the Silurian..
or in the Victorian period - but i'd have to be rich or else it would be shitty.

Can we go back with the knowledge that we possess now? Because if we could, I'd like to go back to when Adolf Hitler was a struggling artist and convince him that life was hopeless.
I could then purchase a custom-made noose....

Heh, I'm sure they honoured that just as much as the rest of us nowadays. There was just more frowning upon it back then
