He wrote a book in 1927 "An Experiment With Time"
This is from wiki:
Dunne argued that past, present and future were in fact simultaneous and only experienced sequentially because of our mental perception of them. It was his belief that in the dream state the mind was not shackled in this way and was able to perceive events in the past and future with equal facility.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_William_Dunne
Thanks for the nudge, Algo 
It ties in well with the poem VM posted in the beginning of this thread, too. I wonder what the prize is?  |
Trailgoat is our Grand Prize Winner!!!!!
The correct answer IS John William Dunne, known as J.W. Dunne.
The Grand Prize is a copy of his book - An Experiment with Time, signed by myself 
Of course the very first clue is the title of this Thread - TIME.
TG - PM me your info and I will make sure you get your prize!!!!
Congratulations!!!!!!

Fresh eyes, I guess.

NUDE JOHN WILL MAIM (Well, that's just disturbing. )
I SWIM ALL NUDE - JOHN (see above comment) |
I need that mural too. You could have a sweet little side business producing those.
And LMAO @ "that's just disturbing".
Thanks for kudos. I obviously could not have solved this with out all of the hours of work everyone else put into this puzzle.
VM, I am excited to read the book. And autographed by the Top Dog himself--awesome!
I will be happy to forward it to anybody else interested in reading it when I finish. |
