Depends on who I'd be when I got there.
Example: It would be cool to go to medieval Europe, IF I were nobility. It would be most uncool if I were a serf.

The end of time.
To see jesus make booze.
Back when people fought wars the good ol' fashion way.
And back when microsoft first got started so I coud buy shares in their company, and profit.
Same with enron.

I'd go back and invest in ford motor company, ferrari, and but lots of land in fairfax county VA (represent!) before it was 400,000 for a small house on a quarter of an acre. And then sell it for much much more than that.

I would go back to King Arthur times, so I could joust with Lancelot and use my high-tech jousting pole to beat him.

i love dinosaurs. well, used to, but i retained the knowledge i learned. there is a species of dinosaur called "compsagnathus" which is the size of a chicken. it is a carnivor (well, bug eater) and is built like a small raptor. minus their "terrible claw." picture a chicken with arms, a tail, long nose and no feathers.

Impressively revisionist.
If you read history from the century leading up to the civil war (American and European history) you will learn that slavery was a major national and international issue for decades. While slavery may not have been explicity raised as "what we are fighting for" until later in the war, that in no way reduces the significance of the issue in the politics of the time.
To fail to acknowledge the importance of slavery is to take a uselessly narrow view of the period.

Sorry man, but there were more slaveholding states in the north than
the south when the war broke out. The emancipation proclomation only
freed southern slaves, not northern slaves.
Too bad education is so politcally correct nowadays. You'll never learn
in school that Lincoln had planned to repatriate all of the former
slaves to Africa.
It's also not taught that there were colored regiments in the south
that fought against the union. "Glory" was a good movie, and quite
factual. But it wasn't the whole story.
History has been re written to make the Union's actions seem just.
