I made it worse! Nooooo, silly! I was referring to your creative spelling of the word, "puhleeze!" I italicized "this," and I'm overpronouncing the word as I type it, how could you not get that?

Good! I thought you we being awfully dense. Glad we finally figured it was me not you.

Oh wait....

This thread does make we wonder, what would it take to convince you a time traveler was captured on film in 1928?

Assuming they were trying to blend in (so no waving "Hillary in 2012" signs) what would you look for?

Digital watch, an LED? The same person 50 or 100 years apart?

Would finding a odd bit of clothing, like a modern looking baseball cap be enough?

Huh. I might have a new hobby. Sneaking into various archives and planting photo-shopped documents for people to find years later....

Reductio ad absurdum.

I didn't catch that. Sorry. I'm sick; my brain is all muddled.

While I do not accept the central premise of the individual in question being a time traveler, it was interesting to see that transvestites have been around on Hollywood blvd. since at least the 20's.


Wait a second..... Time Travel, Transvestite, movies, Is that..... :eek:

Since practical time travel would violate much of what we believe to be true about the fundamental rules of the universe the first question would be how would you convince me that a photo that seems to contain irrefutable evidence of time travel wasn't a fake.

And assuming they're trying to blend in, it would be hard to say what would be proof because anything to obvious as a digital watch you'd have to wonder how they could be so stupid to leave it so visible.

One thing that comes to mind as something more likely to slip notice would be a polio vaccination scar (though that would place the time traveler as from a very specific future time). But that probably wouldn't be clear enough in most photographs to be certain of what it was. In a validated audio recording I imagine the occasional anachronistic form of speech couldn't help but slip in.

At least? Puhleeze! (see what I did there?)

Trannys in Hollywood could be a 14 episode Ken Burton documentary series!

I looks to me like she's holding on to the rim of her glasses to steady them. (Cheap prop glasses are a pretty commonplace bane to actors.)

This is not a scene from the movie. It's from footage of crowds outside the theater at the premier.
