You've taken my life, so take my soul
That's what you said but who are we to know
I want to be with you
Long as you want me to
But don't move away
Ain't that what you said?
Ain't that what you said?
Ain't that what you say?

Why does the passage of time seem to speed up as you get older?

One of the things I've read is that the perception of the passage of time has to do with how many new memories you are processing. When you are young, many experiences are new and so for a give duration of time (say, a day), many new memories are formed. When you are older, you experience fewer things that are new, therefore you are creating fewer new memories over a given period of time. So, it is the experience of the number of new memories per given period that lessens as you age. And so, time passes faster.

Solution? Get out there and do new things every day!

Light travels faster than sound.

This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

the cosmos is like pouring honey through the eye a needle...
in the near future biorobots will be our new heroes
cause and effect effects the effect of the cause not vice versa that the cause could cause the effect even if it were not effective as the cause of the effect as an effect could have effects only on the related cause after a time x at one point to y at another where x is the effect and y is the cause the bridge between is the illusion of some action having taken place for instance a physical action that leads to a mental impression or just the opposite

hi neo--guess i was too confused and complicated--here is what the british astronomer/philosopher eddington writes in "causation and times arrow" maybe it says it better--
"...there is no discrimination of cause and effect but events are connected by a symmetrical causal relation which is the same viewed from either end"---

Applause
