So, he's probably cashed in his winning lottery ticket and is now having a blast on some island in the South Pacific, somewhere in the future... Or would it be in the past
Seriously though, this is just some crazy s**t, I love threads like this, remind me why I came to ATS... I missed yesterday's thread so thanks for bringing it back up.. I have some serious investigating to do

im just saying....those of us who can comprehend time travel knows, to ACTUALLY build a device, then
1) buying a lottery ticket is soo low on the list its a joke.
2) how are you meant to get back?..if you do get back...reality as you knew it would of completely differed
comedy!!....they were probably reaserching i think...and the parts were expensive
food for thought - if teleportation is possible....then i think time travel could be....peace

2) Since time travel has never been scientifically demonstrated i do not think you can affirm anything about it.

Back when I was about 14, something I had built did something I'd classify as odd. The circuit was simple: the DC-DC inverter salvaged out of an old xenon timing light, and one of those hoop-shaped UHF television antennas. I hooked the inverter to 12 volts DC from a wall adapter, and connected the high voltage/high frequency secondary to the two leads on the hoop. Surprisingly, the crude device didn't short out and go up in a fireball; and I could hear the inverter make a faint "whining" sound from the transformer laminations vibrating.
Somewhere along the line, I got the bright idea to stick something inside the loop and see what (if anyhthing) would happen - I expected at most some magnetic oddity. So I suspended an ordinary steel paper clip in the exact center of the ring with fine sewing thread, and plugged the circuit in. The paper clip developed a faint blue glow around it, and about ten or fifteen seconds in, IT VANISHED, leaving the sewing thread dangling free. Where did it go?
What makes this so odd? It's that when I reversed the polarity of the hoop (by doing the 'ol switcheroo of the two high voltage leads) and repowered the thing, the paper clip reappeared on the thread amidst a faint blue corona like it had the first time around. The paper clip appeared to be intact, and did not change temperature or exhibit any obvious metallurgical changes.
So this leaves the question: Where did the paperclip go anyway? Did it really "transport" to another physical location? Did it slip through our spacetime and end up in some kind of subspace domain or interfold layer? Did a quantum phase shift occur, putting it slightly out of phase with the dimension we exist in? Did it end up in another quantum reality; ie. an alternate universe? Or did it time-travel to some past or future point?
I think I can rule out a straight "transport" from one physical location to another; for the paperclip would have likely fallen on its side during the first half of transport and reappeared in a different physical orientation; assuming it reappeared at all. It might also come back very cold (from being briefly exposed to space, should it have been transported there).
Time travel also seems suspect; a very similar effect might have been observed upon its return - again, it might not even have been retrievable.
That still leaves the door wide open as to what may have happened to that paper clip after it vanished from the wire hoop.
About two weeks after this experiment, I came home from school one day to find the entire apparatus (which had been set up on a dresser) quite thoroughly destroyed; and I've never been able to re-create these results nor did I ever find out who smashed th e piss out of it.
Mike Marcum is back, and the citizens of St. Joseph, Mo., are exhaling in relief. Marcum stunned the fringe-science world last year when he announced on Art Bell's syndicated ''Coast to Coast A.M.'' radio program -- which often focuses on paranormal topics -- that he was inventing a time machine using electrical transformers and 168 electromagnets. In late September, Marcum vanished, and The St. Joseph News-Press chillingly reported that he'd been evicted from his apartment, allegedly for transporting a cat ''a block away.'' Marcum resurfaced last month, taking umbrage with ''the cat deal -- it just ain't true.'' As for his gizmo, he plans to test it as soon as he solves the sticky problems of controlling when and where it sends him. ''Right now,'' he says, ''this would only make a good garbage disposal.''

It may be him since he seemed to have fallen off the map around that time.
I'll keep looking, but I suspect that due to lack of a trail there wont be more than a bunch of dead ends.
If we can get some family names, maybe we could track them down and see where he went to.
