1. That is too funny.
Did you take the Pioneering potential test?

5. Does the deed include oil and mineral rights?
Or do you forefit all claims for the 'good of the community'?

11. Dont forget Gmail...
http://mail.google.com/mail/help/customtime/index.html

Is there a limit to how far back I can send email?

Yes. You'll only be able to send email back until April 1, 2004, the day we launched Gmail. If we were to let you send an email from Gmail before Gmail existed, well, that would be like hanging out with your parents before you were born -- crazy talk.

How does it work?

Gmail utilizes an e-flux capacitor to resolve issues of causality (see Grandfather Paradox).
