Now, "trolls" are not real creatures, you know that!

And, indeed, everyone seems to have a different interpretation of "troll" on
usenet--it is really meaningless to me, my goal is an exchange interesting
information--I have a little time left, and some patience.
But, you have my interest, what is the meaning of "troll" to you? With your
exact definition--I will be able to answer your question more accurately....
plus, we can make sure everyone here is in agreement of what a "troll"
is--then everyone can judge for themselves...

Well, the illusion called time is useful in physics, navigation, etc. It
gives some people something to sell.

Man has struggled desperately to measure time sccurately through much of
history.

The cesium beam atomic clock is about the best standard now. First
produced by the U.S. NIST in 1952 as NBS-1.

England`s National Physical Laboratory atomic clock is accurate to one
second in 1000 years.

No. This is all about measuring movement, and constantly improving the
accuracy thereof...

Rather than saying, "One hour has passed", you should be saying,
"one-twenty-fourth of a revolution of the Earth has occured." Well, take
your pick, they are both the same...

Another way of thinking of this might be, "Everything has a direct
relationship to the revolution of the Earth"--this relationship we will call
"time", the birth/age/death cycle of life, the rise and decay of mountains,
the movement of all heavenly bodies, the radio bursts of a pulsar, the speed
of light, an object attracted by gravity, the spreading apart of the
universe, etc, etc....

Last night I had a dream...

I snuck out to investigate a large and strange building on the outskirts of
the city, this building covered four city blocks!
When I peeked in one window, I seen two vaccume tubes, each was the size of
house!
The window was cracked, though the crack I overheard two engineers talking,
one must have been new, as the other was explaining to him that the equip
was a 100 megawatt xmitter! It was a 60 cycle transmitter. He pointed to
the rear of the tubes, at a LARGE balun which fed lines leaving the
building. He explained that the balun was properly loaded when a certain
voltage was on the plates, and there was a large, variable dummy load which
controlled the voltage on the plates, and that the input power could also be
varied, as this xmitter was used as a "constant voltage souce."
The lines which left the building went to supply homes with the transmitter
power. At each home the power was consumed by many individual "baluns",
which matched the impedance of the line to a device on the secondary of the
balun. Also, many dummy loads (light bulb, resistance heating devices,
etc.) existed in these homes. And, there were even devices who's impedance
matched that of the lines directly, but contained additional resistance to
limit the current they consumed...

Then I woke up!!! grin

vacuum even!!!!

So is God (whether He exists in reality or not).
Question is: Did time exist before man? A year is
simply movement, once around the sun. I've been
here for about 40 billion miles around the sun. Is
that time or simply distance? Am I winding down
because of the years or simply, like my '96 pickup,
because of the miles?

.. Usually, I reread posts, the above-I did not, I am sure you noticed.

Such as where the constant voltage on the plates should have said, "Constant
voltage on the secondary of the balun" etc.

But, overlook the errors; you'll get the jest of it.

Cecil:

You surprise me, Einstein thought, eventually, one equation would be found,
probably about one-inch long--which would explain all...
You follow in his footsteps, you are adept at seeing relationships!!!!

Even the Big Bang which occurred billions of *years* before
"the revolution of the Earth" ever existed. :-)
