Well, i never read a science fiction, (or any fiction book for that
matter)

but i like star-trek on tvee...

but...

Definition. A possible world is a complete way things might be. 
Possible worlds are alternative worlds one of which is the actual world. 
Philosophers use the notion of a possible world to define and discuss
ideas such as possibility or necessity.

and Philosphy books are too hard to read...it's confusing. 


I live in a 'actual' world. There are no other worlds.


too many clocks
running at
different times, at
different rates..
it's confusing.

Does anybody know what time it is...now?

Or does anybody got the right time?


I got to figure out what time it is now...

i have to start counting from the
first 3 seconds.

You know, at the beginning...

tick, tick, tick..


How many ticks are there from
the first second to...Now?

Then I will have to correct time.
