"I kept winding it back, playing it; winding it back, playing it back, and I couldn't explain this," he says. "I want to get this out there to let people try and give me an idea, because right now the only conclusion that I can come to -- it sounds absolutely ridiculous, I'm sure, to some people -- it's a time traveler." Although, as Clarke notes, the "old woman ... looks like a man in drag ... on a mobile phone."

No. Who would he or she be talking to?

Don't know... perhaps him?

It's an older woman with heavy breathing holding her hand to her face because she feels uncomfortable with the camera nearby. She could be holding on to anything or it could just be shadows.

Can you hear me now?

Can you hear me now then?

Fixed it for you.

I really really hope no one thinks that's a cellphone.

TY, I feel like a fool for not considering that in my post

You have never listened to the John Titor folks on coast to coast. They are probably throwing massive parties right now.

I'd like to know how a cellphone cam work without any cell sites.

(or is it a 'Farnsworth'? )

They still believe in that? None of his predictions happened.

Did they ever figure out who it was?

Dunno, I just remember hearing about him a lot on long drives, come to think of it, the last time I can remember hearing about him on coast to coast was 2006ish. Even then, that was long after most of his previous predictions. I think they just claimed multi-verse.

It constantly amazes me how little the average person understands about how cell phones work.

1800 - Alessandro Volta invents the chemical battery. This enables technology, eventually cameras. Cameras make movies. Chaplin makes his movie in 1928.
1928-1800 = 128.

128 bpm, a common meter used for dance music at raves, which is a young persons gig, and they all have smart phones.

So, yes, it's a cell phone. And she's finding out where tonight's rave is.

I saw the sports almanac though.

 

[icerat]

yep, definitely a time-traveler alright. you can see it on the way she walks

 

[bozman]

Shouldn't she be trying to hide it or something instead of walking around with a super advanced gadget like that?
