No vote for obvious ridiculous reason. Now if you can send me with enough ammo, an assault boat and a Seal Team to the caribbean during Columbus first voyage. He would had only "discovered" his Death. And Spanish Kings would end up Broke. All 3 caravelas would had been scuttled! Crews sacrificed.
2118, Because I know the past lets see the future
Even though it would be interesting to experience the feelings at the end of the war, I would not want to stay long. Economy at a terrible low, grief and fear from the war, worldwide flu pandemic, and terrible conditions. I would like to see what the future holds. Hopefully, we haven't ruined our planet entirely by then.
I'm the son of a United States Nuclear Engineer. I've grown up surrounded by technology my whole life. Read more books than most people have ever seen. In my opinion, the past and the future would both be exciting to see. I have a love affair with WW2 Battleships. I also dream of seeing the stars and other worlds one day. A conundrum at it's finest. Good times. ?
The future is a mystery, and the past is not. I'd probably do a lot of betting, since I'd know the outcome already. With the money I'd be able to acquire over time, I could avoid falling victim to the Great Depression and (assuming I'd go back the same age I am now) not be a primary candidate as a soldier. I'd buy a bunch of land in some beautiful part of Oregon and have buildings, festivals and parks named after me.
The future would be a nightmare because I'd be considerably out of touch with technology and societal norms, methods of communication, laws, etc. I already feel a step behind, I can't imagine the degree of lost and clueless I'd be 100 years from now.
Future, maybe by then we will become a space society and I'd have hope of getting this miserable hunk of rock. This is on the basis we haven't totally devastated the entire plant and now the cockroaches are in the dominant species.
Wait. Aren’t they already?

Unfortunately, 1918 wouldn't be all that much further in the past, but I'd take it. Some of my favorite people and all of my favorite music were in their prime then.
