Something strange happened to me this morning. I was walking my dog, when all of a sudden I heard a strange whooshing sound and out of nowhere a guy appeared on the side walk in front of me. He looked like he was in his twenties and was wearing really strange cloths. He was staring at a small technical device in his hands that was unlike anything I have ever seen. Then he looked up and realized that I was looking at him. With a mixture of fear and confusion he approached me.
"Excuse me, this might be a strange question, but could you please tell me what year it is?" he asked.
"Are you a time traveller?" I asked him back.
He nodded. "But please don’t tell anybody. I am in enough trouble as it is. This is my first solo trip and somehow I messed up the calculation for the temporal projection."
"Don’t worry, your secret is safe with me." I assured him. "And the year is 2021. I am sorry for you, that you arrived at such a bad point in time."
His face turned pale and his eyes filled with horror.
"Oh no. This is worse than I expected". His voice started to crack.
"2021, is this before or after the eruption of the Yellowstone Supervolcano?"
