I voted 'back' because I don't believe that humans have got much future!

Back. I could choose a different career path, and ask my late grandparents all the questions I wish I had done.

Back for me. I'd go to prehistoric times to see what facinating flora and fauna were around and to see hunky cavemen running around in their furry underwear

I'm another one for going back - I'd be interested in fonding out about the Neolithic times a bit more and also it would make a nice break from the industrial / materialistic ages.....relaxing not to have to go a machine speed or have it buzzing around you

Firstly Tufftie should that be fondling or finding when you typed "fonding out about the Neolithic times"
I'm with everyone else, back please, for so many reasons and so many different lengths of going back years and decades for wildlife, music and dance, centuries back to see what it was like during the 10th to 13th centuries to see what it was like around the times of the Crusades and then way back for cave women and there fluffy underwear 
It seems as far as WAB is concerned there is no future

Future - to the end of civilization. Hopefully I could then come back and warn people.
