I might give something a go here... I'm thinking from the modern era, though it might be fun to be from a little further in the future. Is there a particular future we can't be from further than?

I can be flexible a little bit if you want to go into the future. Basically, I just don't want characters from so far into the future that they have some sort of genius IQ standard for enhanced humans of their time. And no super sci-fi realities with aliens and space travel. It all has to be within reason of that which we already know to be possible with today's technology.
