When you come to s^Hthink of it, 'time' is a very interesting thing.

If we (well 'I') look at clock speed variations in a different gravitational field
one can wonder if there may be a better way to 'define' time,
one that does not depend on the present gravitational field. (Le Sage compression in my view).
Then if we look 'elsewhere' at for example the repeating radio burst or gamma ray bursts from
stars / space, and possibly from stars / places outside our 'universe..
Or in a total different way..
Any ideas?
