Einstein was Right About Time

[Michigan_Bill]

So it doesn’t matter the size of the pipe or the blend of tobacco. When I get to the bottom of the bowl, I always think, “That was so fast, how is this bowl finished so soon?” Then glance at
My watch and think, “Where did the time go? How could I be in the zone for so long?”
The only possible conclusion is that Einstein was right, time is relative…

How come it takes so long for my orders to get here then?!?!

You and your pipe are clearly not in the same inertial frame.... you may have invented the time machine.

Einstein, as usual is right. It may turn out that his formulations are incomplete, like Newton's, but they are not wrong.

A physicist explained relativity to me: "Time passes much more slowly when the relatives stay for Christmas".

Time is a scam perpetrated by watch makers to sell more time pieces.

Time flies like the weavers shuttle.

Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana.

"Those who declare to others that 'Time Is Money!' are trying to distract us from the fact that time is life. The time you've spent trying to please them will never come back, nor will they pay you the worth of the amount of lifetime they've wasted for you."

Haven't you ever noticed that it takes longer to get someplace then it does to get home from the same place?

I think we have passed from physics to phenomenology here - in fact, closer to Bergson, a one time rival of Einstein.

Either way, he was certainly correct about plunging regions
