time


about this time change thing. what's the need anymore. it was started so that farmers would have "more time" to farm their fields. we have this invention called a h-e-a-d-l-i-g-h-t now. it's an amazing thing! it lights up an area in front of us so that we can see in the dark. what a concept. perhaps we should think about doing away with this idea of "daylight savings time" once and for all. yes the president has said he wants to do this slowly over the next few years but like most of his ideas it's to slow. time is relative to ones position in it. a great man said that. and it's true. the faster one travels in the 3 dimensions of space the faster time is percieved to move. there is a simple experiment one can do with 2 digital stopwatches. have one person stay in one location and another person drive in one direction for a set amount of time then turn around and return. now before departing start the stopwatches at exactly the same time. when the person who left returns there will be a slight difference in the watches.

back to what i was saying before. daylight savings time is out dated. it's time has long past and it is time to move on.

Thats an interesting experiment you've got there... I just might try it... but I agree, time is relative.
