I'm late to the party here, and a little lost, but I will add, visa a ve the concept of time, that I would refer also to the French "new" novelist Robbe Grillet, who basically (per Proust) has taught us that tine is not necessarily sequential - that we perceive things in time but not necessarily in linear order - this seems to relate to the previous discussion. If not, than I've changed my mind and am not reponsible for anything I am posting here -
