Who was the Brazilian who traveled through time?

I THINK you know what I am talking about.

I think that he was talking about the author Jorge Luis Borges - he wrote heaps of stuff about time, infinity and all that sort of stuff. "Sir Arther Borttendimble" wrote in message news:NlJC8.9831$[email]...

Castandea never claimed he travelled through time. He just took a lot of peyote, didn't sleep or eat for days and sat in dark caves where light wouldn't penetrate so he could have vivid hallucinations.

Cool...so he manipulated the space-time matrix in order to travel forwards and backwards along the continuum.

I'm not sure there even was such a person! I remember hearing -- somewhere -- that the writers just threw in the "Brazilian" reference as a non sequitir gag, and to mess with people's minds.
