ZolarV

Well, thank you Zolar V for that wonderfully delightful compliment. Its the simple things in life that keep me sane.

you know i would just like to add, that the probabilities that gave rise to quantum mechanics and all of its family including the argument here, that theoreticly there could be a universe just like ours where everything moves and acts just the same, yet there is no Time.

Hmm, i am sorry i guess i misunderstood the boson, i was more thinking of the Higgs boson which has yet to be observed, but with the completion of the LHC. "As of September 2009[update], the Higgs boson has yet to be observed experimentally, despite big efforts invested in accelerator experiments at CERN and Fermilab."-Wikipedia.com or if you want i can go look it up at CERN itself. the connection to the mathematical equation and the existence of time is simple, if it existed then we could easily describe it through an equation and using it we could account for the past, the present and then calculate the future. As for the "specific place" now you have taken the statement itself out of context to ask for an answer to an unrelated problem, but even so i have an answer for you, i would say no simply because the specific place is a measurable area from a perspective frame to a place where the measurement is the same both ways (from-to, To-from) proving their existence, where as time from one perspective to another changes according to the viewer. let me ask you this, in the age before the institutionalizing of the Julian calender we had a calender system that had 10 months instead of the 12. when we switched to the Julian we "added" 2 months of time on our time keeping calender, yet time did not in fact change at all it simply flowed constantly like it does. we just changed how we wanted to perceive it.

No, i mean what about a metal as an element not a compound, because compounds can certianly achieve any state possible by just adding the right chemicals. like could there be an copper gas, and if so would it be able to pass electicity better due to its increased energy level, or would the space between atom negatively affect conductivity

i know this must be a dumb question, but can metal exist in the gas state? if not then what forces exist that restrict metals from being a gas, i would think it would be the electro-magnetic weak force or universal gravitation.

Well first, boson have yet to be fully proved. You can fully disprove time simply becuase is no mathematical equations that accuratly describe time that has happend and time that is current. otherwise you could use such an equation to predict future time and possibly the "end of time" if there is one. As for the example of two people meeting at a specific place at a specific time, agian time is a human invention and it was invented for a purpose, that is the purpose. otherwise we would subject ourselves to probability in events. The real question is, when was time invented.

no not really the space between them is a measurable distance between the two objects on the plane of existence. i.e. one object cannot be in the exact same place as another object even at the quantum level, therefore there is space between them. In the essence of the argument time is perceived as a single frame of reference for a particular event, and the argument is that "time" is the same for the event even when two clocks show different values associated with the event. The two clocks are used to measure the "time", and the single frame of reference is the point of view were one clock is different from another. what I’m saying is that both clocks are fundamentally wrong because they are trying to quantify and measure a "thing or force, whatever you want to call it" in a specific way both in reference to a point. In reality "time" flows at a constant rate because it cannot change due to any natural or unnatural factors due to its inexistence. and like I said the only real difference in the reference point is the velocity, and space(aka distance).

I think that you all have the concept of time wrong, Time is neither an energy or a measureable force, it is simply the invention of man to reference one point to another. any sort of relativity associated with time has nothing to do with time itself it has to do with the velocity of the object(A) in motion relative to the other object(B) and the space between them. Basically time is nothing, there is no real time, no measureable force.
