Time travel questionPlease help?

If you could enter a time machine, would you venture back in time and warn the dinosaurs of their impending doom in hope that they will have the will to survive?

Answer:

No, but we should probably warn time travelers to avoid their doom… what I mean is most people overlook the fact that Earth is constantly moving along its orbit around the sunSo even if you only traveled back a day the Earth wouldn't be in that same spot you're traveling toYou'd just appear out in the middle of nowhere in space and die(Sorry.) EDIT: Oh, well wait, you didn't say there was plutonium involvedThen you'd be fineGive it a go, I want a pet pterodactylEDIT 2: It wouldn't result in a paradox like Paul said, just an alternate timeline, dimension, or reality (haven't you ever watched sci-fi?)Then we'd certainly have dinosaurs here, because since we built the time machines, they'd build the inter-dimensional bridging technology.
