MIT students have organized what they call the first convention for time travelers on May 7, 2005, 10:00pm EDT.

They contend that theirs is the only time traveler convention the world needs, because people from the future can travel to it anytime they want.

To set the mood, organizers plan to display a DeLorean – the sleek but short-lived 1980’s car that was the time-traveling vehicle in the “Back to the Future” movies.
