[ WP ] Every time you die , you are transported to the time of the first event that ultimately caused your death . One day , you are hit by a car and sent 12 years into the past .

I had read about the Dead Butterfly Phenomenon - where after death one would go back in time to what started the chain of events that led to one's death - but I did n't think it was real. 
 
 Anyway, here I am, seconds after the reckless driver hit me while I was trying to change a flat tire, and... I'm in the back of a room. Some kind of lecture hall. 
 
 I look up front and see several middle-aged men and women. They're discussing something along the lines of allocating tax money to pay for overdue road projects. 
 
 I hear Canton Boulevard brought up. Wait, did n't they widen that road ten years ago? That's when I realized... I'm in the past. 
 
 I look around to find some indication of what today's actual date is. I then glance down at the papers I'm holding. 
 
 The top of the first paper reads: `` For City Council meeting, November 9, 2004.'' 
 
 I look further down. 
 
 `` My Suggestion For Re-routing The Latimer Freeway''. 
 
 The Latimer Freeway. That's where my tire blew out and I had to pull over. 
 
 `` Mister Philson? Are you ready to make your statement before the council?'' 
 
 I look up. All eyes are on me. 
 
 `` Um... you know, I think I've come down with something. I got ta go, I do n't want to infect anyone here.''
