No it would not. We would see it the entire time. However we would first
encounter it in what it considers its later life, while it would
encounter us in what we consider our later life. If I met an anti-matter
clock, i would think that it is moving backwards, while an anti-matter
person would think its moving forwards. If I talked with an anti-matter
person, I would hear their last word first, and their first word
last.... Any Questions?
