The mental block placed at the end of a certain period of history is, by the time traveler, easily removed (dissolved) if it can be
identified by name--it is one of those things that takes all its strength from linear time.
Sort of like verse-finding for a demon, was the connection we were trying to make with the picture here..
Would it be wrong to say that, because of the evasion of the block, the time traveling creature is one that cannot learn lessons?
Or cannot keep them learned, rather.
Blah blah blah something about Memento.
Re-experiencing for those who cannot remember or for whom remembering is not enough.
Or for whom new experiences are not enough, or simply not.
Blah blah blah scrap-metal Morgan.
Something friendly in the vat.
