Re: Terrified Woman From Another Universe Wakes Up Here..!
I can, in a strange way, relate to it, the feeling of having been displaced of 1/4th degree off. But my feeling came from a very Terrestrial, todays Earth, experience (no time shifting or anything like this, but it felt like it).
I am Canadian. In 2000, I was working in Turkey, with my young daughter in tow. My then husband stayed in Canada.j I was living in Istanbul, in a good enough neighborhood (Atakoÿ for the Turks on Avalon). My daughter was at home, in the apartment, and would go 2 days a week in a daycare, being transported by a small bus. I would go to a partner's office to work. Trafic is very heavy in Istanbul, and coming back would sometimes take quite a lot of time.
At first, everything was new, I was not use to the ways of living there, and I would always feel like being in a foreign environment. Well, few months later, one evening, I am coming back "home". I get off a cab, walk on the sidewalk stretch to my appartment, get my keys and as I am getting home, I realise something is wrong.
I had suddenly lost the feeling of being in a foreign environment and really felt like being back at my real home. As I realised the dichotomy (my real home being in Canada), it felt like twilight zone: the earth had shifted 1/4th of a degree and the reality was another new reality, home was just tiny bit different, surroundings as well.
I had those kind of feeling only twice in my life: that time and another time when I got to know a Dolphin that my daughter had played with for 2 weeks. The latter really felt like encounter of the third kind, feeling and intelligent understanding of an other specie which itself was at my level of understanding and feeling. I turned over to the speech therapist with whom my daugther was working, and she made a head sign acknowledging my sudden realisation (she saw the amazement in my face, no need to talk). That is what it is to work or play with Dolphins.

Re: Terrified Woman From Another Universe Wakes Up Here..!
In principle, I have no problem whatsoever with the idea that anything is possible.
As a matter of fact, I live according to that principle.
However, it should be said that the website from which this appears to be taken - Before It's News - is notorious for perpetuating ancient hoaxes, either consciously or by not checking their sources.
Just for laughs, I searched for more information about that allegedly disappeared professor. I searched in Spanish, naturally, so as to get as close as possible to some original source.
The one "source" that I stopped to check - with said Segundo Peña being the author of the report (on the website) - did not even mention the time frame of the alleged disappearance and claimed they would not name the professor "out of respect for his family".
???!
Gimme a break. A disappearance would have been investigated by the police and he would still be listed as missing. There would be nothing disrespectful about mentioning his disappearance - in fact, all of the people I have met that have had someone from their family disappear were more than happy to have their loved one's name brought up again in public.
The universe is full of mind-boggling mystery as it is.
Let's not tarnish its genuine mysteries with silly stories. :-)
Oh, and needless to say, if genuine reports appear about any of these cases, I'd be the first one to welcome them.
