1984

Walter was a genius inventor. After making a fortune working for corporate America for many years, he ventured out on his own with a transporter. After a few tweaks and tests, he figured his first transport should be a publicity stunt and set the coordinates to place him in the middle of Times Square. He jumped into the pod and transported himself, but no one seemed to look twice at his appearance. As he looked around, he noticed that Times Square looked...different. A glance at a newspaper revealed a further problem--the machine didn't just take him to a different place, but to a different time as well: 1984 to be exact! And the reason why no one gave him a second look was that he was apparently transported into the body of a person who was standing at the exact location of the coordinates...some punky looking chick! He did a little dance when he realized he could re-invent many things he already knew or just bet on a few sporting events he knew the results of...this would be a good life.
