  Just a comment on number 7 on the list. I am in my mid 30’s and always hear from people what an amazing memory I have, from family members to friends, to associates that cannot remember a clients name that I save the day for them on. And I have to say on remembering the names of people I do use a lot of word association. But I will say that the things I associate the names to are memories of people with the same name? Also as far as smell bringing back memories for us, It’s kinda like songs. We all have different sound tracks to our lives, Maybe you grew up listening to whatever your parents listened to as a kid, Those songs would trigger memories of your parents. As a teenager you start to get your own opinion of music and form your own taste. So of course you would have songs that remind you of your teen yrs. And so on. I think the smell part triggering memories is another sense’s track of our lives. For instance as a very young child i had a huge Lilac tree growing outside my bedroom window and in the summer when the windows were open my room smelled of Lilacs. To this day whenever I smell Lilac I think of my room there as a child, and when I buy some Lilac and keep it in my house, I seem to sleep better? Could it be that the Lilac is a smell from a simpler time in my life and allows my brain to pull out the filing cabinet of memory where i slept peaceful with no worries. I think about that a lot. As well I can remember things people were wearing 10 yrs ago. What they said, Where we ate. Is my mind just more stimulated in that area. Thanks for listening.

  Aether Wave Theory considers Universe random and it models it with nested density fluctuations of infinitely dense gas and/or with wave equation in infinite number of dimensions. This model can explain most of the question above.

  In regards to time travel, it is possible to travel into the future — all you have to do is travel really really fast. The link below is on time dilation, the phenomenon that this arises from.
