Actually, I think we may have uncovered the real motivation for the Iron Curtain of Time...

I mean... here this poor guy is trying to take a shower (hence the robe) and these people from the 31st century keep trying to peek at him.

He has to take so many showers, too! All that dust and decay everywhere.
He once got Glorith hooked on the Body Scrub of 1,000 Chemicals, but look where that got him...

This important subject deserves further discussion!

What iss?
I believe it was reboot Legion of Super-Heroes #114 (1999). Brainy introduces the Anywhere Machine, which M'Onel hates. Vi discovers the United Molecules. Vi and Ayla try to "fix" Zoe's mind, which had been turned into space-tapioca by the Time Anomoly. I just assumed that Triad Purple would continue showering naked...

This erosion of privacy rights has gone too far. If the people from the future watching us are criminals who are going to be sent into the past (i.e. our present), we better watch out.

The REAL reason Brainy invented the Time Bubble was so he could come back in time and vote off Sanjaya.

I have a feeling that the future may be using my life as a subplot to a tv series of the United States. I also have a feeling that since my life is so boring (well i do travel alot) and has nothing to do with the US government...that my subplot is highly fictionalized. I hope they got somebody good looking to play me. They are watching me and mocking me. I hate the future!

Jeepers! It just occurred to me that people on alternate Earths may be reading about my adventures in comic books!

Here's an idea I read about in a Time Travel site a couple of years ago:
First, write your own version of the following letter.
Dear Time Travellers, Assuming that civilisation has evolved by the time you read this and time travel is an everyday occurrence, I hereby declare that I really want to meet you because <add a few good reasons>. I'm a fan of a futuristic comic book (a small book composed of sequential images and text) called the Legion of Super-Heroes that's set in the 30th-31st Century. It's possible you don't even know it ever existed. It's also possible that it's studied in your time as a "classic" of historical literature or even that you've created a real Legion of Super-Heroes as guardians for your world(s) inspired by this comic book. As a mega-fan of this magazine, time-travel, extraterrestrials, galactic empires etc are no novelty for me, so I'm not going to go into shock if you decide to come to my era. I'd like to meet you on <add date> at <address etc>. I'm enclosing a photo of myself for your convenience.
Thank you <name>
Now, go to the bank and rent a safety box for 500 hundred years. Put the letter in it. State explicitly that that box is not to be opened before January 1, 2507 and on condition that time travel WILL be a reality by then.
To further ensure your letter will be read by time travellers do the following too: Open a small account and put some money in it that is to be spent for paying for the safety box after 500 years elapse (5 centuries' worth of interest ought to be enough for extending the time your safety box will remain yours) in case time travel is not yet possible in the early 26th century. Keep a copy of the letter to prove to the time travellers that you are you.
Then go home and prepare for the meeting with the time travellers from the 26th century. Make *aboslutely* sure you'll be in the right place and time for the meeting!
Silly? Of course it is. I wonder, though, if anyone has tried it.

Wasn't there a convention for time travellers or something like that at MIT or someone a couple of years back? I seem to recall a thread about that somewhere.

I wouldn't know but there still are a few sites with serious discussions about time travelling and the possibility of contact with time travellers.
