Do they exist or don't they? Do you have any stories that you have read or have you experienced one yourself? Tell us all about it here.

nope, more like a piece of time that extends to another piece. Say you are standing on a bridge, in the center and you are in your time, but you move a little to the left and all of a sudden you're standing in 1752, but if you move back to where you were standing then you are back in your time and no time has elapsed. That's the best description I can give.
I honestly believe they exist. And the reason I do is because time goes in a continuous circle, but we don't live on that circle. We can only view time as linear because we know the date we are born and then we have a date when we die. But, true time is time that has no beginning and no ending. Time really has no minutes or hours, we came up with that.

Time actually is linear, rather you believe in science or religion. The universe began, rather by God, by big bang, by who knows what way, it began. Thus the beginning of time. Point A, and proceeded to point AAAAAAx20000000 however frickin many, every second time progresses, a point is added to the line. The ray will continue until time ends, whenever that may be, and then will become a line segment. Thus, linear.
Secons, Minutes, Hours, Days, Months, Years, Decades, Centuries, such and so forth, are just ways we've developed to measure the passing of time. To measure point A to point AA, such and so on. You get the idea.
As for them existing, no I don't believe they do. I believe for that to happen you would have to create a rift in space-time or have control of temporal mechanics, and as far as I know, that's not possible, so no I don't believe they do.

I could believe they exsist. Time is created by man, no other being lives their life on a clock. The entire concept is created because thats just how OUR mind works, so who is to say that there aren't these little cracks that we dont know and cant quite understand?

There was an interesting incident quite a few years ago. Some Archeologists were excavating in the cellar of a building in York, here in the UK. They were busy digging and sifting when, all of a sudden, a troop of Roman soldiers marched silently through a wall and right passed where the Archeologists were. Now, York used to be a large Roman settlement called Eboracum, and the place is rich with Roman history. Stories of Roman ghosts and such are a part of the local folklore. But there were a few things that was strange about this incident. For one, the Romans were partially sunk into the ground, everything below the knees couldn't be seen. Also, as they trooped past the Archeologists, some of the soldiers actually looked up at them as they passed before disappearing again through the opposite wall. Intrigued, the Archeologists dug deeper and uncovered an old Roman road, in the exact spot where the Romans had passed them by.
A haunting or a crack in time?

I think they were just high off chemicals that were under the ground where they had been digging =)

Ty, our time is linear yes, but not real time as you would call it. Real time goes in an infinte loop because there is no true beginning and no true ending.
Seffy, maybe they really were seeing something of the past. I believe things like that happen all the time, and it would be cool to see something like that, a crossing in time. I know I would love to be an archeologist sometimes because the past interests me a great deal.

Mistress, the time your talking about exists outside of our phyiscal world of reality and wouldn't affect us, I believe. Also, no beginning and no end could still be linear. A line has no beginning and no end as well, not just circles/ovals and such. And assuming time works on a line, that doesn't end as you've suggested, it would never loop back around, and would help negate the possibility of these occurances.
As for the soldiers, I think like I said they were high off chemicals in the ground. And knowing what they did about the area, I find it very easy to believe that they just got overactive and thought they saw something.

I think that could be true. I dont think they were necessarily high. It just takes some faith in the concept of cracks in time to see the possibility. It would probably be the best experience of my life if something like that ever happened to me. I am very interested in the past as well.
But its best not to DWELL on it!

As far as I'm aware, the earth produces natural chemicals. As they were excavating a site, I assumed that human made things were once there. Those things, when broken down and mixed with the things put off by the earth naturally, I'm making a hypothesis to say that it probably put off some chemical reactions and the guys got high off it =P
It's always possible they had one hell of a hangover too, Seffy.
