Dear Time Travel Institute,
I have received permission from my superiors to send you this one communique.
I believe that it is time to put the saga of John Titor to rest once and for all. I too am from the future and am an officer in the Temporal Fraud Division, of the Chronology Bureau. We track down time felons know to us as "Tempus Fugitives" which is a slight play on a term used in a science fiction story of your era.
Let me state to you right now that "John Titor" is a real person, although this is not his actual name. We of the future have strict laws governing time travel for the obvious reasons and Mr Titor has broken these laws.
We do the best we can keeping track of those who would use time travel to their own advantage or to dupe those of earlier times. However every now and then one of these criminals does manage to elude us for a time.
This felony in our time is rather akin to the problem you are having with Identity Theft in your time. Instead of stealing identies however, these people are literally stealing your time.
I hope you understand the unbelievable damage that a person form our time, knowing every single detail and fact of your time could do. We like our time just the way it is, and a person trying to change this by going back into the past is subject to penalties of the severest type.
One of which is taking the felon back to perhaps the sixteenth century and stranding him there. I'm sure you can imagine the horror of the complete finality of this punishment.
Mr. Titor has been apprehended and was dealt with according to our laws. He shall not be bothering you again. You were lucky this time, as Mr Titor was on the verge of perpetrating an action that would have completely disrupted your computer and INTERNET based society.
Just so you know, the generalities of the predictions of which Mr. Titor spoke could easily have been ascertained by any astute person of your era. In the future, please use some reason and logic when confronted by this type of situation and don't be so gullible.
You your selfs gave "Mr Titor" all the credibility that he needed. This will be the one and only communication you shall receive from me.
Sincerely,
Mano Detrium TFB
