Take this, you never know when it might come in handy

There are some things that every time traveller should know: how to find the toilets on the TARDIS, how to say "please don't eat me" in Morlock, were to buy a Mr-Fusion (tm). All of those things are important for the aspiring chrononaut, but lets examine another possibility, supposing you find yourself back in time, why the sheer level of knowledge that you as a modern man from a technologically advanced society possess could make you a God! or at the vary least a massive fortune.

The only problem is: how does some of that technology work? In particular, what are the basic building blocks of that tech? I mean it's all well and good to show Queen Elizabeth I the "light bulb" you just invented, but how exactly were you planning on powering it? Yeah, suddenly that Godhood and massive fortune are slowly sliding towards poverty and poor hygiene.

Well fear not gentle reader, this handy guide, found on google after about 30 seconds of work shall leap to your rescue, providing you with all of the information you'll need to bring about a technological wonderland in ages past. Containing such useful information as:

• A pendulum that swings for one second has an arc of approximately 1 meter
• Aluminium was once more valuable than gold
• Milk is pasteurised by heating it to 99.999% of it's boiling point
• Insulin can be extracted from the pancreas of dogs and pigs
• You are remembering to take credit for these discoveries aren't you?
