Others claim it was a type of hearing aid... but why was she talking into it?

Personally, I'd want to eliminate all the more basic possibilities before we grasp at the more exotic ones. I've always contended that time travel will never be possible, because if at any point in the future it became possible then we'd probably inundated from do-gooder assmonkeys trying to "fix" the future by traveling back and warning us about everything under the sun, only to have OTHER do-gooders show up and tells us the things we did to "fix" the first set of problems caused an even worse future. |
