Jonathon is still looking for this book:

"YA Sci fi about children and time travel and a post-apocalyptic world, the children have mental powers and there is an evil machine intelligence that is fighting them them.

I read this book in 1997-2001. It already seemed old, maybe from the 80's. It was a YA (or middle school age) Sci fi about children and time travel and a post-apocalyptic world, the children have mental powers and there is an evil machine intelligence that is fighting them them.

Any thoughts appreciated. Thanks!"
