Tel, its the theory of something-or-other.
The older you get, the faster time passes.

Just think back to when you were a kid. The few days before Christmas took 
at least 12 months to arrive.
Now, well, as you say !

Dont know how to get the lost time back tho!

Now I don't want to alarm you guys, but we seem to have entered some weird
time warp.

As some of you know, recently I purchased a battered old warhorse, 'bout
twice the size of the Myford, and have been pottering with it to get it set
up to my liking. Now a little while back I built a three way toolpost for
the ML7 and it has worked very well, so on Friday I started to cut metal to
make a larger one for the 'beast'. Tonight, after shapering up the two
triangular plates I decided, as a matter of interest, to check the
original - has to 'ave been there 5 or 6 years, thinks I - wrong again, the
date stamp sez 5/11/'88 - 16 years to the day.

In a similar vein, not long back the subject of box tools came up amongst a
small group of us & I nipped down to photograph the one I made a couple of
years back. Oh yeah? Try 10 1/2 years.

So what is happening to all this time? Where is it going? How do we get it
back?
