enneth Udut I've had similar thoughts to this through the
years. I remember when this came out and it made sense as a
possibilities; I always thought of Time as physical, since
learning about Einstein stuff as a kid.. like we're falling
down a hole that we can't see and we experience it as Time,
kinda like Gravity.
What made it click for me - I think it was 5th or 6th grade
(I was way into Doctor Who... still am) - is when I learned
about the illusion of colors; and how Infrared is a color
that our bodies experience as "Heat", so it seemed logical
that many of the things we perceive as distinct may not be
distinct at all.
But these days, I ALSO have a flip-side notion; much of the
mathematics describing the Universe do not have a Time
element; Time is assumed as a measure of change but has no
steady clock-like element, except perhaps in astrophysics,
with the whole red-shift, blue-shift, using far off objects
as measuring sticks..
and part of me wonders if it's possible that time does exist
but as most of our calculations already don't measure Time
and they work perfectly fine, the temptation to eliminate
time altogether is not such a far stretch of the
mathematical imagination.
Not to say they're not right; they just might be; my mind
goes either way on it, or something entirely different. But
it's a fun place for the imagination to go and who knows?
The more ways we look at this elephant, the more we will
discover in the process, so I see no reason to *not* pursue
it. There's plenty of room in theory to pursue lots of great
ideas; and not get trapped into thinking what's only popular
for today.

[6]Kenneth Udut The real test to me, would be Chemistry.
Chemistry is the one branch of science that is *entirely*
dependent upon Time. It is also the field that has the LEAST
amount of Theory and the _most_ amount of practical, useful,
daily knowledge. It's not as cool as theoretical physics..
but it does appear to be time dependent... so any further
studies in this theory, I think, might be testable in the
lab, thorugh chemistry.
