If Time Stops

What if Time just stops Every clock world-wide ceases be they plain wrist-watches or fancy computer pieces Time goes into an icy deep-freeze Think of the havoc it would wreak in the classroom, on the job Just visualize the angry mobs of folks who miss their schedule They think, of course, that they are special O, wouldn't it be a lovely day here on Earth to see to what Time's death might give birth

I am willing to see the death of time.

It would be indeed interesting, especially if you were stuck somewhere you didn’t want to be.

Like if time stopped right as you were about to pull the pin on your parachute...

Interesting conjecture, gw. Hmmm...let's see, time is really created by the rotation of the earth around the sun and on its own axis, isn't it? Am I right about this? That being the case, if it stopped

I really don't have the faintest idea how time came into existence. I wouldn't mind it stopping once in a while thought, or speeding up at times, or slowing down... Oh, well. Can't have everything in life.

It will be a timeless rebirth of humanity, and what an awakening, and priceless emancipation of restrained thinking that will be!...ab

Here, here! Your answer wins first prize, Anselmo. I think that's exactly how things would play out. Thanks, gw
