I disagree. The information in the titor story is much handwaving. Its not particularly, as I've seen it, indicative of a thorough understanding
of Quantum mechanics, which has been around since before einstein anyway. Heck, titor himself states that he's clueless, another failsafe, to answer
any questions/problems that arise. Also, think about it, the story titor gave, it was as detailed as could be wrt the phyics of it, just not on areas
that woudl be contradictions. Why would a guy who's nothing more than a 'shot gun trooper' even know that stuff anyway? His stories are very
detailed in teh physics on the matters that make it 'convincing', but vague on subjects that woudl reveal if it was BS or not.
As for the social studies bit, the story itself was unoriginal, lifted, apparently, in detail, from an actual book called alas babylon.

So many people here at ATS, including at least one moderator, have told us how it was discovered that Titor built up his fake story by following
closely the plot of Pat Frank's novel Alas Babylon, about life in Florida in the aftermath of a nuclear war, yet so many others keep wondering
whether or not Titor is a real person. Maybe these other people think that Pat Frank traveled to the future, interviewed Titor, returned and wrote the
novel before Titor payed us a visit???
I can go on and on, but go culture yourselves and read that book.
