He told The Times: "If a time traveller wanted to go back in time to a specific date, we could probably draw up a little phrasebook of the modern words that are likely to have sounded similar back then. You wouldn't be able to discuss anything very complicated, but it might be enough to get you out of a tight spot." Sensible people make plans for likely eventualities.

And I have two questions:
How much money did these bozos get to do the research, and how does it change my life?
(Or, to meet them on common ground — how many T-Rex ribs did they get for their work, and will it help me get a bigger cave?)

They include "throw", "stick", "dirty", "guts" and "squeeze" which could all be out of use by the year 3000.Well, at least the guy is smarter than Al Gore - smart enough to make bogus predictions that cannot be proven false during his lifetime...
