The Secret Powers of Time



So I laid down on the couch after work today to take a power nap, that turned into a 3 hour nap (oops!) Now of course, the consequence is that a normal bedtime is a virtual impossibility, so I found myself drawn to some animated lectures on youtube.  The channel this is on has a ton of them.  This is one that I found especially fascinating.  Although it tends to focus more on the philosophy of the ideas and less on practical implications (It never really answers the question about whether it is better to be past, present or future oriented.  It all depends on what you value most I guess, but there are implications for society good and bad every which way).
