   I have heard of the novel but have never read it.  However I have seen a movie   
   based on the premise, 'A Sound of Thunder (2005)'.   
      
   BTW, strictly-speaking the fan will have contravened rule #2 in time travel:   
   "never bring anything back".  Bradbury would roll in his grave.  :)   
      
    ak> I've found out what it was: R. Bradbury "Forever and the Earth".   
      
   Ah, so.  Well done, indeed.   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
