I have had a couple of thoughts on the "what is time" question, and for what I can think of, time is a carrier for energy. If you want to get energy from A to B then you will need to "transport" it. This transportation occurs with a "speed". Time is the carrier. The amount of time multiplied with the reciprocal of the distance gives you this "speed". Analogy: just like information can be carried by electromagnetic carriers, energy is carried by time. > I asked Him what Time was, He just looked at His watch and asked me to come > back tomorrow. That's weird.... I asked Him the same question tomorrow, and he told me to come back yesterday..... --Ralph Moonen --rmoonen@hvlpa.att.com
