So, now it's clear what your principle A1 is: 1) Everything stays the same unless something tries to change it. 2) If that thing changes, then it enters another quasi-stable state which will in turn remain the same without provocation. But then why does time require energy to keep moving forward? I would think that it would try to retain its 'velocity', and therefore since it is now moving, it should keep moving forward unless some provocation tries to change its current status quo. ??? ------------ E.
