In classical physics we define time to be an independent linear variable. This is because classical physics involves non-relativistic motion, and the easiest way to observe that is against time. This definition is the basis of simple equations of mechanics (v=u+at, etc).
The opposite case would be in quantum physics where time no longer has the same importance.

I do know definition of motion... But I don't really see how this explains the quote? We didn't define time to make motion simpler.

Or did Wheeler try to point out that motion is simple only in classical physics?

+1 cuz you made perfect sense

you have a point... I found the order weird as well... that's how I found the quote, so that's how it must be

Of course it is.

is it what it is, or is it what it says it is?

It is what it needs to be.

Ooo, there's this Storage Bench with a cushion on top. Its for 60 USD. Hmmm... I'll probably purchase it.

Waking up so tired.. Horrible start of a day..

If you've got nothing to do for the day then .... relax and drink some green tea!

And listen to Idematic - Border from Vocaloid. Good song.

haha, same for me, slept 5hrs...
But atleast you didn't need to go out and cycle to work after getting up.

o.O but I wasn't defining motion. I'm saying (and so is the quote) that the very reason motion is simple is because time is considered linear and independent.

Umm

That's exactly what I said earlier too. If you make time a component of space-time then it is not clearly defined and motion is not simple.

Back at my parent's home for the five-day weekend. Hooray for not having to buy food, washing the dishes and cleaning. And my hands are open again. T_T

Indeed a good one if I got the right song.

* Nodame-chan is a huge Vocaloid fan =3

Just got home.. I had maths for last 3 hours just after waking up.. Now I feel like thousands of horses have run me over..

Hehe, I didn't need to feed anyone, just walked around the dayroom and watch TV.
Then I started this lunch break.

This vacuum is taunting me -http://www.amazon.com/Eureka-RapidClean-Handheld-Vacuum-41A/dp/B00BAZR8UO/ref=pd_sim_sbs_hg_2

To purchase, or not to purchase.

Tatsu I have a question if I may.

Do you know Japanese?

You could have used google translate

but oh well.
It says koibito = lover.

^ I guessed something like that

+ who the fuck wants to use G translate if they have a choise?
(I could have used my online dictionary as well, but.... xD )
It is just more fun to ask.
