But then even if I didn't exist, it would be worth it to save the lives of some 60 million souls......

And if you just want to live in an earlier time to change your personal circumstances - well those events have helped shape the person you are now.. just changing one of them could have unfortunate consquences
I know I'm a boring fart - happy living where I am and living for today, no matter the shite I've gone through.

I just think that views of 'times gone by' are generally looked at through rose tints.

I'd have liked to be an adult in the 1960s, to see what I missed. I've a feeling all these baby boomers talk it up like it was some crazy time, but it was probably quite normal, much like the 70's and 80's.
Otherwise, I'd choose the Stonehenge era, just to ask them what the hell are they doing that for. (and then use a big wooden club on a the nearest wench and drag her back to my cave).
