Hello! My name is Diamonddozen and I have a craft theory, that really has nothing to do with Minecraft, but I believe it may hold the interest to many of you. So here we go!





Many of you may already know the story of Marty McFly, or have even seen the Back to the Future series. Basically, a high school teenager who works for a scientist goes to the future in a DeLorean. Now when I say future, I mean TODAY'S DATE (yesterday for the Eastern Hemispherians). So I've decided to find out when we should expect to see Marty McFly and Doc Brown in a DeLorean.





First of all, the exact time and date is not hard to find. According to the dates and times on the DeLorean, Marty and Doc left on October 26th, 1985 at 1:20 AM. They planned to arrive in the future on October 21st, 2015 at 4:29 pm. As I write this sentence it's 5:12 pm here. The question is...have I missed the arrival of Marty McFly and Doc Brown? No.

We must remember that there are such things as time zones, so that 4:29 pm is different for each area. To figure out the exact time we need to do some simple logicing (shut up it's a word if I want it to be). First of all, Marty McFly lives in Hill Valley, California (fun fact that's actually a joke, because it's an oxymoron). I looked up Hill Valley and it is not an actual place. That means we can't find the time right? Wrong! We can deduce exactly where in California Hill Valley is by going to the past. All the way to the fictional conception of Hill Valley...1850. According to a road map of the area, Hill Valley is in the northern part of California, putting it in the Pacific timezone. Currently, it is 4:20pm as I write this sentence. That means in 9 minutes you better be looking.




You could also go here: http://www.october212015.com/ but that doesn't tell you the EXACT time. It tells your current time.





This is a momentous occasion, because it shows just how far we've come since then. I hope you guys are excited!
