Responses to recent Author Enquiries:

1.  The story about the man who was telepathically in contact with
    his past and future selves is

	Now +n Now -n

    by Robert Silverberg.  My copy is in Nova 2, edited by Harry
    Harrison.

2.  The story about the man who invested enough money in the past
    to pay for his trip back there is

	Compounded Interest

    by Mack Reynolds.  My copy is in SF - the Best of the Best, ed
    Judith Merrill, but the citation is (c) 1956 Fantasy House.

Most of us as schoolboys calculated the value of "Caesar's penny",
invested on his visit in 55 BC an some trivial rate of compound
interest.  However, the seminal story is of course H G Wells'
When The Sleeper Wakes.
