Turns out the universe isn't doomed to a catastrophic UV Cascade event.. I forgot that when you create the second portal that in effect is in essence rooted to that moment in spacetime as far as it's creations.. i was actually thinking about it backwards.. since both portals are created at about the same time.. the simple act draggin the portal through spacetime at near c speeds to slow down it's relative temporal velocity would not cause it to travel backwards in time it would meerly pass through it more slowly that the relativistically static portal so basically you could travel thru the portals further and further back in time but only to the point of the creation of the exit portal. It is also worth noting that simply creating the exit portal and temporally dilating would only work if the entrance portal were also already created as creating.. or recreating it at a time after the dilation had occured would serve to negate teh effect as the two portals would then be connected at that current spacetime and the dilation would need to be reinitiated establishing that point as the new temporal anchor. but in any case no danger to the universe just yet so rest easy.

seriously... i just don't have the attention span to maintain them.. got *way* to much other stuff spinning thru my psychoscape.. stuff that has nothing to do with me.. for instance did you know that the idea of using antimatter to power an electric space drive has been proposed? These proposed designs are typically similar to those suggested for nuclear electric rockets. Antimatter annihilations are used to directly or indirectly heat a working fluid, as in a nuclear thermal rocket, but the fluid is used to generate electricity, which is then used to power some form of electric space propulsion system. The resulting system shares many of the characteristics of other electric propulsion proposals (typically high specific impulse and low thrust). what does this have to do with anything? especially my obsesion with Portal? absolutley nothing, but it's up there and it takes up space... I really need less wikipedia access I think.. You know something else occured to me? A portal gun would not get you out of a closed room unless one of the portals was already in place before you were placed inside? You otherwise just be in a self fashioned tesseract. I mean you could place a portal on a starship and fly it somewhere and then you'd basically have faster than light travel.. hell in fact if you had the ship not travel faster than light but say 99.9% of it "impulse drive" or some such (man i just used treknobabble.. gimme a sec i need some mouthwash)... and technically time would pass slower for the portal on the ship than the relativistically stationary portal and then if you brought it back and placed it next to the original portal it would actually actually be connected to an early point in spacetime so technically if you entered the original portal you would exit the second portal before you entered the first one.. think about it.. if you were to manage to calibrate it so that the difference in their temporal signature was say one year then everytime you jumped thru youd go back in time a year.. now this creates some messy paradox issues.. such as ok einstein you exit the portal and your one year in the past.. assuming that it took 10 years of relative time for the original portal for the new portal to be sufficiently time lagged to create the anomaly what happens if you travel thru the portal in an attempt to travel back to a time before the exit portal actually existed? prolly just be the opaque blue due to their not being an exit yet but dont confuse me with facts im rambling here... you for that matter you could do it the other way with fewer problems temporaly speaking. Just travel a year into the future each time... buy some stocks.. open a savings account.. maybe some long term bonds.. then pop 30-50 years into the future and close out the accounts.. and play cooler video games.. if they ever come out with matrix style virtual reality games.. you know like that Futurama episode? yeah.. you're all DOOMED every single last one of you.. I won't spawn camp you tho.. no sport in that. :)
