yea. ok, so lets say ive got this antimatter clock merrily spinning away,
backwards, suspended via maglev in a vacuum chamber. then, to be ornery, i
adjust the magnetic field slightly to tilt the clock to the side... how does
the clock respond? does it actually tilt? that would require that it move
forward in time...
or am i just picturing your anology wrong, mike? i find this very
nonintuitive...

pretend to worship her, but at least i admit it when my gods are make believe
and my worship is a facade..."
