the page above shows one can implement a time travel machine as it boldly states

"The original version of this was written by John Aycock and was described in 
his 1988 paper: “Compiling Little Languages in Python” at the 7th International 
Python Conference."

I suppose those early primitive pythons had some issue with integers as 
wackypedia states that

"Python was conceived in the late 1980s[1] and its implementation was started in 
December 1989[2] by Guido van Rossum at CWI in the Netherlands"

so that Aycocks's paper must have been at the -1st Python Conference
