silly query

Robert Jadah · 10-24-2007, 09:28 PM

OK, I'm only a Canadian.
But I'm trying to get used to a new forum here. Howzacum posts show as 'Today' or "yesterday' when they were, in fact, posted ten days ago?

Or am I just being Canadian (ie, dense)?

Quizzical, I am,

Robert,

It's pretty simple actually. Don't sweat it - I'm here to help...

According to the Theory of Relativity, your yesterday could very well be my today. Australians are in the future, the US of A is the present, and Europe is in the past. When you fly on an airplane, time slows down a bit - have you been travelling much recently? Or you could be near an high-energy gravitational field. Try throwing away any quantum black holes you have into the recycle bin. Also, don't look too far in the distance, as the light that is reaching your eyes may be much older.

Maybe you just need a new monitor.

Tomorrow is only as far as today was yesterday,

Robert is in that freaky Candadian time zone where it's already winter.

Thanks, Joe. I know that certainly clears things up for me!
