Stream of counsciousness about stream of time

Abstract

"Time" is an abstraction imposed upon us byphysicists, bureaucrats and others to createorder. As when loud church bells, or minaretchanting, created shared community time."Change" is concrete, empirical, intersubjectivelycommunicable. Some changes, likepositions of hands on clocks or ringing of bells,particulary Big Ben (now under repair), andsubatomic processes, are chosen as representing"time", carrying "time", even as being "time"."No change" means no time. But clocks continue,marking "time".
