I desided to repost this to 1) clairify some points and 2) as a responce
to a mail message that I accidently trashed(sorry).


On the Valyard:

I believe that the Valyard used the Trial as a way to get more
regenerations (The attack on the Doctor and the Trial were part of this
master plan) for at the end the Keeper of the Matrix IS the Valyard (he
used the same trick as the Master did in -Keeper of Traken-).  His "death"
allows him more freedom then he would have otherwise (you DO NOT
look for a man you saw die -Brain of Morbius- as an example.)  As the
Doctors 13th incarnation he would have KNOWN that he (The Doctor)
survived the trial and the attack by the Valard.  All of the claimed
goals were a smoke screen for the goal of more regenerations.  This is
a simple solution to a long debate and I think makes the most sence.

On Time Travel in THIS universe:

Time Travel is possible.  Several ideas derived out of BOTH Einstein
theories and quantum suggest our old consept of ONE dimesion of time is
WRONG.  First there is the little know constant in Einstein equations;
this constant implies MORE THEN ONE UNIVERSE to exist (Einstein removed
and replaced this constant within the equations because of this; the
equations WITH the constant have been proven not the others.)  Second,
the wormhole effect suggested for black holes (all using Einstein
equations) says that "time and space are transposed beyond the event
horizon of a black hole"  i.e. you gain ALL the freedom in TIME that
you had in SPACE as well as the reverse.  Since you only had one
direction of freedom in time outside the event horizon you now only one
direction of freedom in space inside the hole AND by QED --Since you
had THREE directions of freedom in space outside the event horizon you
now have THREE directions of freedom in TIME inside the hole.--(The
author fails to mention this little result of switching the axis of the
time-space grid.[The book in question is called "Wormhole in Time and space"
,I believe- it has a star with a trail of steral material being pulled into
a grid-like cone(the black hole]  I can give the proper title by September
when my stuff comes from Ohio)  [It has been pointed out that the constant 
was mainly for a static universe but it also works in CLOSED universes
not in an open one. Also "If a black hole is rotating {two event horizons}
one can miss the singularity and emerge in another TIME and place in this
universe [wormholes] or in ANOTHER one [EINSTEIN-Rosen bridges]" (Pg 185
"The dancing Wu Li Masters" by Gary Zukav)

Side note: Takions(sp) go faster then the speed of light.  Einstein
said you cannot travel AT the speed of light, but nothing about objects
not traveling beyond the speed of light.  C is a hyperbolic limit;
nothing from EITHER side can go C.  To get around the imagerary numbers
that this produces Takions(sp) have another fun property: they go back in
time.  (This is more quantum theory then Einstein though; QTheory also
says that a positron is an electron going back through time (pg 218 of
"The Dancing Wu Li Masters" by Gary Zukav.)).

Quantum Theory suggests that there is more then one universe and this
has already been threaded to death so I leave it.  

Note I say Time Travel is possible not practical. "The Dancing Wu Li Masters" 
by Gary Zukav is given for a simple referece book and source.

Comments on both subjects are welcome
