To Ininitive Linear Time Format

Cubic time format, no I'd say there is an iniitive number of days, within 1 rotation of the earth. It all depends on where you are. Even just being 1 step from where you are right now, your space and time are different; but the diffence is minute, very very minute. It's when you start getting great distance that the difference is notable (i.e. here in Australia it's night time, but in other parts of the world it's day rime.

Also time, we messure it in seconds, minutes, days, weeeks and years. A day is based on 1 revolution of the earth on it's axis. From that, we divde that up into 24, to get an hour. Then devide 1 of those hours into 60 and you get 1 minute. Devide the minute into 60, and you get a second. A week, well that's based on religion (i.e. it took 7 days for the world to be "created"). A year is roughly divded up into 12, to get 12 months; every 4 years an extra day for the month of Feb.

The problem with this kind of form of time messurement is it it is restricted to the earths rotation and the rotation of the earth around the sun. A more perhaps better way to tell time would be to base the foundations of messuring time on something more universal. Something that is fundamental to space itself. The force of gravity.

Then again I guess that it's the way we percive time, or perhaps the way we can't percive time and the space time continum....hmmm why does one get on such trippy subjects on weed???
