well, for now I've done that, because at least for this mission, things like the time machine can ONLY be gotten ONCE and if you lose it in Manhattan, you're stranded. We'll keep this in mind going forward

not true, sorry... i was able to build up two of these time machines... when i was in manhatten and travelled back (without completly finding all 30 pics) i gave parts to the repairman and he build a second time machine for me...
