   Well possibly the Swiss have something like time travel.   
      
   (That would be a good motivation for fakery in physics.)   
      
   As I see it: time travel is already really dangerous and anybody   
   suspicious of timetravel could make it even harder than it already is.   
      
   That would be REALLY simple:   
      
   you could start creating 'bifurcation points'.   
      
   Doesn't matter, into which way you alter the future, but any change is   
   dangerous for the travelers in time.   
      
   I personally would recommend to alter everything into just one direction   
   and make simply everything better than it should be.   
      
   The other way round is possible, too, but would soon bring you into trouble.
