:S heck NO ! I am old enough to remember the "good ol days" ! They generally sucked ! Try living without running water, and refrigeration for a month, then call me !
Depends on what I could take with me. A 22mag with 10,000 rounds..Make that THREE 22mags, gun oil and 100,000 rounds, Good boots, generator and plenty fuel, penicillin. After that I could probably live like a god and trade for anything I wanted. Early archaic would be perfect.
Heck, just send back a couple of spy satellites and park them in outer space. If that's too expensive, some of those drones they use along the border would keep me happy. One with a thermal/infrared camera to check for camp fires and warm two legged creatures would be pretty cool on my paleo sites.
Let me tell you a story that happened 62 years ago and I don't even want to go back that far.
I wore hand me downs and patched clothes. When I started school my mom bought me my first pair of shoes. It was something having shoes with no holes in them. I was running along looking at my new six inch tops when I ran into a barbed wire fence. That left a mark. :laugh:

Back in the 50's, I lived on a sleepy river and the farm across the street, 2 swamp yank brothers, last of a family of 16, had no running water, no electricity, wood stoves for cooking and heat, no vehicles. Sat with them on summer nights by kerosene lamps shooting the breeze.
My point? Well, my family did have what they did not have, but I would go back to that time and place in a heartbeat. In a heartbeat, and toss out all my electronics and cyber devises too!
