[other stuff deleted] First, my disclaimer: I am no expert on physics. If you happen to think I am wrong, then you are most likely right. I'm just tossing an idea I read about out onto the net to see what may become of it. I personally like the theory that time is the forard-only path that denotes the increase of total entropy in the universe. Non-stoppable and non- reversible. A simple answer (from my simple knowledge) for a simple question. You can't get a much more humble opinion than that. Just my two pfennig worth.
