Well, we wouldn't dispute what you could use it for. But as we understand
the theory, Mad Scientist tech is _only_ tech (and actual technology, not
just any Reckoner-type supernatural ability) that existed up to 2060
(approximately). If it didn't exist up to 2060, then the manitous couldn't
loan it to Mads in 1876 (or 1910, or 1944, or whenever).
As I noted in my response to Steve Wallace, so did they have man-made
technological time travel in 2060? I seem to recall something int he Wasted
West Companion suggesting something to that effect, but we don't have that
book either...
