Hmm, are you saying that if man hadn't invented calendars, sun dials, GMT and daylight savings time we would exist in a static universe overcome by complete and total entropy, everything existing in only 3 dimension without the 4th there to make the past different from the future?!?!?!?

Also, my point was... time is based on the sun, moon, earths rotation etc. But then how could you even begin to figure out what time it is in another solar system?

That would just tell you the time back home, but not what time it is there... can another solar system even have time same as ours, without creating a new clock?

Sure if their planet takes 365 days (which is to say, the same time it takes for Earth) to make a full revolution around their sun (or suns) and they'd like to count days according to that. If they'd like a lunar calendar such as the same one we use here then they'd better have a moon that takes aprox 27.5 days to make one revolution around their planet. If this were the case then they'd have the same calendar we do. If not then they would have a different frame of reference when messuring time.
And what of a floating rock in space, within no system, belonging to no solar system and has no moons? What time would it be there?
I'm 45% sure and 89% not sure, also 30% confused... <--- Did you know, 75% of all statistics lie? =D
[snapback]22063[/snapback]
Ya well you're going crazy.
They formulate their own method of counting time. Half-life of an isotope or something.
Just because they have no obvious frame of reference doesn't mean that time doesn't exist.

Short answer, "yes" with an "if". Long answer, "no" with a "but".
I personaly think we should get with the times (no pun intended) and use our sun's galactic orbit for a year (http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2002/StacyLeong.shtml).
That would be a hell of a New Year's Eve party!

I agree with Talon on the format, *is a bit late* But it does make more sense...Day/Month/Year, thats how i date things lol.
mmm blueberry kush
[snapback]22218[/snapback]
No way makes more sense than another way.
if you write out a date you normally do it like this: April 22nd, 2005 ----> this would translate into 04/22/2005 ---> month/day/year
If you're French you write dates like this 22 Avril, 2005
If I were you i'd just stick to write out dates like they do in your own State or Country otherwise you're in for confusion.
Yesterday: 2005421
Today: 2005422
Tomorrow: 2005423
Very logical, always increasing!
[snapback]22264[/snapback]
What about when it is 200551? It would then be one digit less!
2005421 (7 digits) is more than 200551 (6), and yet the logical date is about 10 days later!

Always check Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%FChrer).
Calling someone "Der F�¼hrer" is usually used as a sarcastic reference to Hitler.

Normally a reference made by someone with little to no intelligence. I mean if you noticed while I was having arguments with CM i never compared Bug to Hitler. I used Castro, Stalin and Mussolini among others as a comparison to his xenophobic and intolerant attitudes. But just coming out and calling someone Hitler because a person is trying to enforce forums rules and not have it degrade to the slime that it was a few months ago, is plain stupidity and highly offensive (especially considering what that man did to my great-grand parents), simply childish.
