a maximum speed for light, what does that mean in terms of time?
IIRC current models for spacetime hold that the maximum velocity
you can have is lightspeed. As you accelerate along the space
dimension, your motion in time slows; if you're fully at rest, your
motion through time is at lightspeed.
Yikes.
Well, that pretty much explains why I can never get anything done...
Between batting away accusations of anti-semitism and lobbing insults
at the president and his ilk, I'm traveling through time at lightspeed.

So much light, so little time Maru
Maybe that's why so many get hooked on speed . . .
