Back to the Future
:46:31
Doc?
:46:33
Don't say a word.
:46:35
No names. I want
to know nothing about you.
:46:38
Listen, Doc--
- Quiet!
:46:40
Don't tell me anything.
:46:41
You got to help--
- Quiet.
:46:46
I'm going to read your thoughts.
:46:48
Let's see now.
You come here from a great distance?
:46:51
-Yeah. Exactly.
-Don't tell me!
:46:54
You want me to subscribe
to the "Saturday Evening Post".
:46:57
-No.
-Not a word now!
:47:00
Quiet.
:47:03
Donations.
:47:04
You want me to make a donation...
:47:06
...to the Coast Guard Youth Auxiliary.
:47:09
Doc...
:47:12
...I'm from the future.
:47:14
I came here in a time machine
that you invented.
:47:17
Now, I need your help
to get back to the year 1985.
:47:23
My God!
:47:29
Do you know what this means?
:47:33
It means that
this damn thing doesn't work at all!
:47:37
- You got to help me. You are the only
one who knows how your time machine works.
:47:41
Time machine?
:47:43
I haven't invented any time machine.
:47:47
Okay. I'll prove it to you.

Damn, I thought after writing all these notes to myself today, this is going to turn in to the Great Lakes based on the volume. Every single detail I remember to my artificial life means something else, it is some metaphor for something else. All this stuff I see in the movies and television was put there to help me find my way back. It lets me remember, especially the pain and grief, on easier terms, instead of having it slap me in the face all at one time.
From my notes earlier today, I was commenting to myself that something is wrong or off with the timeline. That may be because I am older than I think I am, maybe several years. I can remember some clues over the past few years, of what I considered to be real memories and not implanted memories, that support this theory that I am older.

The Final Countdown
:07:52
I have a suspicion history will be a little
more difficult to beat
:07:55
than you imagine,
Mr. Lasky.
:07:57
I'm talking about
the classic paradox of time.
:08:00
Imagine, for example, I go back in time
to meet my own grandfather
:08:03
long before he got married,
before he had children.
:08:05
We have an argument,
and I kill him.
:08:07
Now, if that happens,
how am I ever gonna be born?
:08:11
And if I can never be born,
how can I go back in history
:08:13
and meet
my very own grandfather?
:08:17
I'm not half the theorist
you are, Mr. Lasky
:08:20
but I still have a gut instinct
that things only happen once.
:08:23
And if they have happened, then there's
nothing we can do to change them
:08:26
- nor should we try.
- How are you gonna avoid it?
:08:29
It's already happening,
and we're already involved.
:08:31
For Christ's sake, what is this?
Some half-ass Princeton debating society?
:08:35
We are in a war situation.
:08:38
This is a United States
warship
:08:40
or at least
it used to be.
:08:42
Or will be.
Or what the hell ever.
:08:45
Oh, goddamn it, you can
drive yourself crazy
:08:47
trying to think about this stuff.
:08:49
- Jesus, I must be dreaming!
- Now, hold it.
:08:51
All right.
Let's all calm down.
:08:54
Let's take it one step at a time
and by the book.
:08:59
If the United States of America
falls under attack
:09:02
our job is to defend her
:09:05
in the past, present
or future.
:09:07
- And after that?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_order
General order
In militaries, a general order is a published directive, originated by a commander, and binding upon all personnel under his command, the purpose of which is to enforce a policy or procedure unique to his unit's situation which is not otherwise addressed in applicable service regulations, military law, or public law. A general order has the force of law; it is an offense punishable by court martial or lesser military court to disobey one. What makes it a general order (as opposed to a direct order), is that the actor is not explicitly named, nor precisely that (or whom) which is to be acted upon.
A general order of indefinite duration may be referred to as a standing order. Standing orders are necessarily general and vague since the exact circumstances for execution occur in the future under unknown conditions. For example, in most military agencies there is a standing order for enlisted men to salute officers. The officers are required by the same law to return the salute to the enlisted person; however, the name of each enlisted man is not explicitly named in the order, nor is the name of each officer, nor is the exact time which the salute should occur
