A traversable wormhole could be used for either travel from one point to another, or from one time to another. Unfortunately, according to the paper, quantum effects are necessary for the construction of stable traversable wormholes. This would cause the wormhole to behave unpredictably; you might not know where (or when) you would come out. Wormholes and time machines cannot be both predictable and stable.
That darned
Heisenberg! You wanna know the real bummer?
Seven of Nine (otherwise known as the "Borg Babe") is waiting for me at a bar somewhere in the Rigel system so I can set her up on a blind date with a friend of mine. He is going to be so disappointed.
