[SBE] Timekeeping Standard [was RE: UTC Time Standard]

I had to jump in on this.

Time was invented to keep everything from happening at once.

One reason we are having this discussion is that the invention of time
has obviously failed.

Time zero actually does exist, but in multiple dimensions. this easily
explains why things happen at once, and also why we do not always
recognize that this is happening until it is too late.

The underlying reason for all this is simple. Since we always approach
everything as a limit, we never finish what we start.

It is certainly time for a change.
