I'd go back to Michelangelo Buonarotti's studio in Florence when he 
was sculpting David, or in Rome when he was working on the Pieta or 
the Sistine Chapel ceiling, so I could watch him work...I'd also go 
back a little further to pick Brunelleschi's brain about how he put 
the dome on Florence Cathedral.  Of course, going back even further 
to watch Stonehenge or the Parthenon or the pyramids being built 
would also be very good.

I'd spend some time with Elizabeth I in England, watching a really 
powerful woman telling all the men around her what to do...and then 
go watch a Shakespeare play which had just been tweaked by the author 
himself...I'd want to watch the first balloon flight and the first 
real Wright Brothers flight...I'd want to know Marie Curie, Mary 
Wollstonecraft, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Dorothy Parker and Eleanor 
Roosevelt.  I'd also like to see Katharine Hepburn live onstage when 
she was in her mid-twenties...(I saw her in West Side Waltz when she 
was in her seventies.) Seeing Spencer Tracy onstage would also be 
heaven...There's too much to choose from!
