Look at anything...The object you are seeing is he memory of an object, a sense image created by the transfer of information from light into nerve impulse and then decoded in the brain. This may take the tiniest nano-fraction of a second, but it still takes time...everything is memory. Everything is illusion.

How's that for scary?

my brain hurts
Haha, someone who actually has the same concept of things as me. Interesting.
