In 1998 - then again, in 2000 - our world got a hero, born of another reality. A man who traveled through time to warn us of coming catastrophe. Or, maybe, just one more Internet meme spun out of control.
A man calling himself John Titor first faxed Art Bell's Coast to Coast AM program, then later posted on several online message boards. Titor claimed to be a military time traveler from the year 2036, and he told a story of our near future full of war, disease, famine, and catastrophe.
