To paraphrase Robert Z., "Time is just another four letter word" ;-)
Clocks are just integers, incremented by Chronos, or some other god.
If the god is lazy, it'll run slowly; if the god is eager, it'll be
fast. You can be your own god (and use a pseudo-clock). You can start
with the Big Bang, your birthday, or with the recording time of A
Bigger Bang. You don't even need to count ticks of your time: you can
count sheep, too. The only rule you should obey is: never go back in
time.
Cheers
Wolfgang
