Incidentally, I'm still wondering exactly how the Time War works out, in terms of consequences and logistics. Does Gallifrey simply not exist anywhere in the past, present, or future anymore?

If the Doctor went back to, say, the last time he met, say, the Meddling Monk, could he see him there? Or has he been wiped from history entirely? And if so, how does that possibly work, and what status the rest of the Doctor's adventures that involved Time Lords?
